Barney Being Barney

Hello backers, supporters, and friends from our Indiegogo campaign!

Someone said to me, “You’re wearing an ill-fitting suit.” I said, “No, it’s not an ill-fitting suit. It’s a very well fitting suit. I just don’t happen to be the person it fits.” –Barney Frank

As one of our rewards we’re offering THE FAMOUS “NEATNESS ISN’T EVERYTHING POSTER.” Barney Frank launched an early political campaign with this slogan, and he kept a copy of the poster hanging prominently in his Congressional Office. This is a limited 18×24″ reproduction—SIGNED by Barney Frank.
