Maybe it’s the “sans-middleman” spirit of Web 2.0, or perhaps he just wanted to screw the flippers, but Frank Kozik is now operating his own Industrious fans who have the full cooperation of Frank Kozik (so much so that it appears to be run by the man himself) have started the Signedbykozik.com website. Kozik, who rose to fame illustrating band posters for the likes of Sonic Youth and Jane’s Addiction and once managed Man’s Ruin Records, has officially retired from music to pursue toys. The prolific toy maker now releases an item a week with distributors including Kidrobot and Toy2R. His “Smorkin’ Labbits” have become scene icons, while his higher-end toys (like $5,000 bronze busts) are distributed through his own Ultraviolence imprint. As the name suggests, Signedbykozik.com is the place to pick up autographed designer toys, prints, books and skate decks. To keep things on the up-and-up, each item on the website is accompanied by a picture of Kozik signing it.
