The Gocco Set! ...And Save Gocco!

Finally, yes FINALLY, I have updated the Shop with "The Gocco Set" of prints for sale! (I also realized that there was a problem with my PayPal buttons on my site and these have been fixed.) The Gocco box set is designed by Ivan Brunetti and contains 17 prints (made exclusively using Riso's Print Gocco Printer) by 17 artists including:

Andrice Arp
Alana Bailey
Jonathan Bennett
Sean Bieri
Ivan Brunetti
Marc Crisafulli
Fredo
John Hankiewicz
Cole Johnson
David King
Ryoko Oguchi
Onsmith
Jesse Reklaw
Bryce Somerville
Rhonda Turnbough
Britton Walters
Lauren Weinstein

Ivan also recently mentioned to me that Riso, the manufacturer of the Print Gocco Printer, has decided to discontinue all things Gocco. BUT, there is already a group of Gocco enthusiasts ("Save Gocco") campaigning to find a new home for the products other than Riso. I personally hope that these products will still be offered somehow, because this automated screen-printer has been such a helpful tool in making mini-comics and small prints. If you're a fan of Gocco prints or the printer itself, PLEASE check out "Save Gocco" to see what you can do to help out.
