India’s Incredibly Cool Hand-Drawn Movie Posters | AsiaObscura#.TyiwA2NSSgk. Ramachandraiah prints movie posters for a living. He’s done it ever since 1971, when he bought an ancient lithograph press. He keeps it in a factory north of Bangalore, far from the English town where it was built 111 years ago.

This is good news to designers, since it’s yet another opportunity to come up with new creative ideas to present corporate identities or market themselves, and it’s also good news to everyone else, since having stylish, beautiful business cards is a great way to express your uniqueness and maybe even get an edge over the competition.
