Jeff Kleinsmith and Jesse LeDoux decided to start making screen printed rock posters together 11 years ago while working together in Sub Pop Record's art department. They named their endeavor Patent Pending and used it as a creative outlet and experimental conduit.
To celebrate our first 11 years, Patent Pending will have a retrospective poster show at the Design Commission Gallery in Seattle's Pioneer Square. Digging deep into the archives, this will be the first time their 11 year body of influential poster work will be seen in its (near) entirety.

First, we just produced 2 new T-shirt designs. One from Jeff (based on his Sining poster), one from Jesse (based on his Melvins poster)! They are now available in the shirts section of the site. Our older designs are no longer available through the site, since we have VERY limited sizing on them. if there's a specific size/design you're after, just drop us a line.
Next up is Jeff's new poster for Sunny Day Real Estate's recent show in Portland. Legendary band, soon to be legendary poster. Get yours for the first month only for the nice price of $20. After this month, the price will raise to $30.
And if it's old posters you're looking for, you NEED a Mystery Tube! 10 years of awesome in one tube! They're $50 and you're guaranteed to get at least 10 posters. We slipped in some true rare gems that we'd thought we had sold out of. We also slipped in a couple true stinkers. EVERY TUBE A WINNER!
