How it works
A calendar you finish with a coin.
The poster is 31 panels for the 31 nights of October. Above each panel, a date and a film title in plain type. Under each panel, a small hand-drawn relic sealed beneath opaque silver latex.
The rule
Watch the film first. Then scratch. The image underneath is not a label and does not have to identify the movie, because the title is already printed above it. The image is the reward: one object from one scene, drawn so that someone who has seen the film remembers the moment, and everyone else just sees a strange, well-made thing.

Concept rendering. The printed relic is hand-drawn to the same brief.
The catalogue line
Under every relic, a few words of provenance are printed with it, sealed under the same latex. Not a caption and not an explanation: a museum label for an object you already recognise. “Roadside, after the party.” If you watched the film, it lands. If you did not, it is just a line under a drawing.
Declassified
Three relics for films on no edition, drawn to the same brief. They are here so you can see the style without losing a reveal, and they appear as each one is finished.
- Film
- Jaws (1975)

- The yellow barrel

- Three of them, and it still went under.
Not on any edition. The hand-drawn relic is being made to the same brief as the poster’s; it replaces this envelope when it is done.

What is in the tube
- The poster, printed on heavy stock with a fully opaque scratch layer, proofed on the real material.
- A scraper. A coin works too.
- With the $39 tier, the enamel completion pin. Wear it after night 31.
Thirty or thirty-one?
The name says thirty. October has thirty-one days. So: thirty films across thirty nights, and a thirty-first panel for Halloween. That last cell is set apart on the poster and behaves a little differently. We will not say how.
Spoiler policy
Every title is public and printed on the poster; the full lists are on each edition page. The relics under the panels are not shown anywhere before the poster ships. Each edition page shows one concept rendering of a relic from The Canon so you can see the style and scale, and nothing else.
