In May 2000, a few select prints were reissued. These reissues were all signed 2000, noted AP, and are printed in only red and black. Only ten of each of these prints were produced. These reissues were to commemorate these prints being issued as fine art pieces on metal at the "Obey Propaganda" show. This show, at The Merry Karnowsky Gallery, ran from May 27th to June 24th, 2000, and displayed new works by Shepard Fairey with Ron English. In at least 2 cases, the prints were slightly changed. At this time, the only known reissues are as follows:

  • Che
  • KISS (Yellow part of fire was changed to white)



NOTE:
Shepard notes that all reissues were done in two colors only, and that any other print thought to be a reissue is just a miss-dated original.
