Vintage look portrait of Vincent Vega from “Pulp Fiction”
Last year, a South African-based creative design studio called MUTI created a fantastic series of posters and portraits based on members of the cast of ne’er–do–well’s from Quentin Tarantino’s 1994 masterpiece, Pulp Fiction. Some of the images in MUTI’s minimalist homage to the film may remind you of the artwork of cartoonist Chester Gould - the illustrator and creator of the Dick Tracy comic strip that originated back in 1931.

MUTI’s Pulp Fiction series made its debut last year in honor of the 20th Anniversary of Pulp Fiction and the images have the distinct look of objects that have seen better days. According to MUTI, the concept for the posters was inspired by vintage cigarette cards. Can you imagine pulling a set of these babies out of a pack of Tarantino’s fictional Red Apple smokes? As my imagination is as vivid as it is demented, the answer is yes, yes I can. It’s unclear if MUTI is actually selling prints of the collection, but you could contact them here and ask.
