The rock posters of Jason Munn

Jason Munn, a mellow 33-year-old in a scruffy beard and plain navy sweater, is a kind of poet of the rock poster - and a minimalist poet at that. His design firm is called The Small Stakes, after a song by Spoon, and he shares that incisive band's retro aesthetic and less-is-more philosophy.
