Sappi and 826 "Imagination" Poster

Do you feel utterly uninspired by your barren walls? Then it’s time to reinvigorate your imagination with a creativity-inducing poster, featuring an assemblage of eight quirky caricatures based on 826 storefront themes, all designed by noted illustrator Jack Unruh.

Produced by Sappi Fine Paper, this two-sided, 18” x 36” work of art is sure to get your creative juices flowing. For even more 826-themed depictions, you can score the poster for free with the purchase of Sappi's limited-edition print and design book, The Standard. Like the poster says, "Imagination is a limitless place … filled with possibilities." So are your walls.
