“Cinderella” Once Upon A Time Screen Print by Kevin Tong

The Blot’s sad to say today marks the release of the final print in Mondo’s Once Upon A Time Screen Print Series by Kevin Tong. This week’s sixth and final print is based on the Grimm’s Fairy Tale “Cinderella.” This has been a really exciting series and I know fans of ABC’s Once Upon A Time have been eating them up! All in all this series hasn’t wowed me, but I do love Tong’s use of composition and white space. I’m really interested in finding out if the images for this series are the same ones they used in the corresponding Once book.

Each Once Upon A Time 18"x24" hand numbered screen print by Kevin Tong will have a Standard Edition with metallic ink and a limited edition run size of 225 prints, plus 95 metallic Gold Variants. The Standard Edition “Cinderella” screen print will retail for $40, while the Gold Variant will retail for $65. These posters will go on sale at a random time today, Thursday, January 12th, at the Mondo online store.

“Rumpelstiltskin” Once Upon A Time Screen Print by Kevin Tong

It’s Thursday (again!), so you know what that means… time for a new release in Mondo’s Once Upon A Time Screen Print Series by Kevin Tong. This week’s print is based on the Grimm’s Fairy Tale “Rumpelstiltskin.” Not my personal favorite, but Kevin did a really nice job on all that straw!

“Sleeping Beauty” Once Upon A Time Screen Print by Kevin Tong

It’s Thursday, so that means it’s time for a new release in Mondo’s Once Upon A Time Screen Print Series by Kevin Tong! This week’s print is based on the Grimm’s Fairy Tale “Snow White” and while I hate to say it, it leaves much to be desired. While The Blot likes Tong’s use of silhouettes in these prints based on ABC’s hit television show Once Upon A Time, I just wish he had done something more with this one. A house with a smoking chimney really doesn’t scream “Snow White” to me.

“Sleeping Beauty” Once Upon A Time Screen Print by Kevin Tong

It’s Thursday, so you know what that means…a new release in Mondo’s Once Upon A Time Screen Print Series by Kevin Tong! This week’s print is based on the Grimm’s Fairy Tale “Sleeping Beauty” and is actually pretty cool. I especially love the juxtaposition of Sleeping Beauty and Prince Charming’s faces. I just wish ABC’s Once Upon A Time was as good as these screen prints!

Each Once Upon A Time 18"x24" hand numbered screen print by Kevin Tong will have a Standard Edition with metallic ink and a limited edition run size of 225 prints, plus 95 metallic Gold Variants.

“Little Red Cap” Once Upon A Time Screen Print by Kevin Tong

Later today Mondo will be releasing “Little Red Cap” (a.k.a. Little Red Riding Hood), the second print in its new Once Upon A Time Screen Print Series by Kevin Tong. There will be six 18”x24” prints in all, with a different print by Tong released on six consecutive Thursdays. From what I understand, each image by originally created for ABC's Once Upon A Time: A Collection of Classic Fairy Tales book, a tie-in with the hit television show Once. While the book sounds cool, these prints are freaking ridiculous!

Each Once Upon A Time screen print by Kevin Tong will have a Standard Edition with metallic ink and a limited edition run size of 225 prints, plus 95 metallic Gold Variants.

Once Upon A Time: The Book Illustrated by Kevin Tong

As a die-hard LOST fan The Blot was extremely excited for the world premier of ABC’s Once Upon A Time. Sadly, I’ve found the show somewhat boring and have actually enjoyed NBC’s Grimm much more than Once and its start studded cast. However, when I saw the amazing Kevin Tong was illustrating the official Once Upon A Time book and Mondo would be producing a Once Screen Print Series to tie in with the book’s release, well my interest was piqued to say the least! This collection of Grimm’s classic fairy tales is scheduled for a December 27, 2011 release, but you can pre-order it now at Amazon.com for just $10.87! That’s worth the Tong artwork alone in my book.

“Rapunzel” Once Upon A Time Screen Print by Kevin Tong

When Mondo found out that Kevin Tong had created a number of original illustrations based on classic fairy tales for ABC's hit television show Once Upon A Time (more on that later today), Mondo knew they had to be involved. And so yesterday Mondo announced a new series of six Once Upon A Time 18"x24" screenprints by Kevin Tong, each based on a legendary story from Grimm's Fairy Tales. The six Grimm’s Fairy Tales included in this series include Rapunzel, Little Red Cap, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Rumpelstiltskin and Cinderella.
