Wrestle Pets Publication

Description: This book of Lucha Libre Wrestle Pets includes 20 dog and cat wrestler portraits along with corresponding humorous biographical information. It includes the original 15 from the trading card set plus five rookies. Each book has been digitally printed on 80 lb Cougar Opaque text and handsomely handbound here in the Dancing Cat Bindery with yellow 100% cotton thread in the pamphlet book style.The cover is Classic Columns Solar White over Red Pepper. A purple metallic foil stamp image of the Wrestle Pets logo adorns the cover label.



I really like this idea as it combines something completely ordinary, domestic pets, with something totally out of the ordinary, Lucha Libre characters. Below are a few examples of the caricatures that are found within the book. I like the illustrative style and the colours used, but I especially appreciate the information that the designer has put forth helping me gain a greater understanding into its creation.
