Lambe Lambe
In Sao Paulo, there are apparently only two print shops left that still use traditional woodblock printing, I was lucky enough to visit one of them. Generally they are kept busy by a regular trade for flyposting advertising gigs around the city. Due to the city cracking down on flyposting the days of woodblock printing may be numbered. The posters are known as Lambe Lambe which translates and “lick-lick” refering to the way they are pasted on the walls.
Below examples of Lambe-lambe on the streets. Noite de Mini Saia (Night of the mini skirts)
