In May 2000, a few select prints were reissued. These reissues were all signed 2000, and noted AP. 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 one case, the print was slightly changed. At this time, the only known reissues are as follows:
- Obedience Problem
- Chinese Boy (Red star on hat has been changed to white)
- Kiss
NOTE: Shepard notes that all the reissues were done in two colors only, and that any other print thought to be a reissue is just a miss-dated original. (Site Administrator notes: Because of this, the "Kiss" print may not actually be a reissue due to its three colors. Ten of these prints, originally from 1999, were sold as APs, signed and dated 2000.)
