London 2012 Events.
UPDATE: They were designed by Alan Clarke as proposed posters for the games.
I saw these on ffffound, so there’s a very good chance they’re only someone’s vision of what the events posters should look like for the 2012 London Olympics. But man oh man, am I hoping that they’re the real deal! They would definitely help make up for the disgrace that is the logo.

I posted about them as well here: http://ministryoftype.co.uk/words/article/an_olympic_poster_proposal/
Thanks for posting about them, they’re great!
