You're quite the completist, rugby.

If you're gonna make that charge, keep in mind that Rob took this scene from Watchmen.

Let's not forget about Victor Fleming,

Always loved this image, should have snagged it from Rob when I had the chance.

It's in issue #10 or #11 when Nite Owl and Rorschach are approaching Ozymandius' fortress in Antarctica. And really it shouldn't even have to be said but the primary perspective for this print, as Samuraiwriter pointed out, is the Wizard of Oz. The reference to it is explicit in the title of the print. Rob makes visual allusions to a lot of things in his work. I don't think you can comfortably say that the Snow White poster is derivative of this work in particular.

With you there. Just saying that when I saw the Snow White image, this print was the 1st thing that popped into my mind.

If you don't own it, you really should try and score one of these if in fact this is the last White Stripes poster.

...and that time is now

Crap missed the Emerald City print, please anyone let me know if they'd like to sell theirs as I'm a huge White Stripes and Rob Jones fan and have loved this poster since I first saw it.

It's great, but it's a beast.
