a long time ago, on a vacation far, far away…

ok, that’s lame.  but these travel posters based on Star Wars locations are not.  from Chicago-based designer Justin Van Genderen, this series of “travel posters” inspired by Simon Page are wonderfully designed, simplistic yet compelling. and unlike that Reservoir Dogs poster you’re hanging on to, your girlfriend might let you hang one of these puppies up in the new place.

This looks rad…although i had serious issues at the site (could be user error, however).

Have you seen it yet?! Not only does it feature tons of exciting things to do in good ol’ St Louis, but on the cover is a great shot of Chuck Berry and Nelly together on-stage during the 2009 MLB All-Star Commissioner’s Gala.

Switch produced the St Louis themed event last summer…read all about it here  if you’d like to refresh your memory or see more pictures.

Otherwise, you can check out the cover and the rest of the Official Guide here.
