Damon, Carlton and a Polar Bear’s Limited Edition Lost Prints

Have you been to the new Lost website Damon, Carlton and a Polar Bear yet? If not what are you waiting for!?! This Lost tribute website made its debut at the San Diego Comic Con 2009 Lost panel and was created by Lost fan and professional actor/comedian Paul Scheer. Believe what you may, but as far as I can tell DamonCarltonandaPolarBear.com is more of a viral marketing, official Lost tie-in website than a tribute site. But who knows.

For a while now there has been a fake online fight going on between Damon, Carlton and a Polar Bear and Ronie Midfew Arts. Of course Ronie Midfew Arts is also an anagram of Widmore Fine Arts! You can find out all about this online legal battle over the rights to sell Lost inspired artwork here. Anway, it appears this was all hype leading up to a series of limited edition Lost themed screen prints being released exclusively on Damon, Carlton and a Polar Bear. How cool is that!?! Two prints have been unveiled so far, one by Olly Moss and one by Tim Doyle, with 14 more to go. I’m not sure how often they will be releasing new prints, but I would imagine it’s every couple of days. You can read the official press release below.

Damon, Carlton and a Polar Bear’s Limited Edition Lost Prints - Locke's Secret by Olly Moss
In celebration of LOST's final season and as a project of fan appreciation, 16 top designers and artists, who are also fans of the show, were commissioned to create artwork celebrating one of the series' most memorable, and unforgettable, "water cooler" moments. This ultimate "fan art" was then turned into labor intensive, hand-pulled screen prints, limited to an edition of just 300, with less than 200 available to the public through our website. Each beautiful poster tells its own different story, allowing the fan to relive memorable and influential moments in an artistic manner, as the show's storied run comes to a close. Once this limited edition print has sold out, they will never be printed again. Celebrate the fandom, community and family created by one of televisions' greatest shows by hanging a little part of its history, inspiration and influence on your wall.
