Starring Donnie Yen, "The Bruce Lee of the 90s," "Crystal Hunt" was a martial arts film from Hong Kong made in 1991. Frequently, theaters in Ghana were unable to import official posters. Enterprising artists created advertisements in their own style. The result are singular works of art. In this case "Wasco Art Services" captured the spirit of the film in their own painterly style. The misspellings and hand-painted lettering are integral to the genre and shed light on the cross-cultural 'mis'interpretations common to this now well-collected folk art form.

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
