Any minute now the Inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama as the 44th President of the United States of America will be taking place. Did you know there was an official ’09 Presidential Inauguration website? Well there is, and it even has its own Official 2009 Presidential Inauguration store where you can purchase a wide variety of Obama and ’09 Inauguration clothing and collectibles. Best of all there is an entire section of collectibles dedicated to the work of OBEY Giant’s Shepard Fairey.
If you go there they have the official Inaugural Poster I mentioned last week, as well as two newly designed Barack Obama ’09 Presidential Inauguration pins and buttons created by Shepard. The Shepard Fairey Barack Obama - Be The Change Pin and Button features the 44th President of the United States’ face while the Shepard Fairey Logo Pin features the ’09 Presidential Inauguration logo designed for President Obama by Mr. Fairey.
Both Presidential Inauguration Pins retail for $10.00 each while the 2.25” celluloid Shepard Fairey Button retails for only $2.00.
