We are not able to sell Rex items directly to the public. Rex Proclamations, Parade Bulletins, and some other Rex items can be obtained from other sources.
2012 Rex Proclamation
The 2012 Rex Proclamation depicts the Butterfly King, an image first created for the invitation to the 1882 Rex ball. The metamorphosis of the butterfly, and its brief and colorful life, are fitting metaphors for Carnival itself, and butterflies have often found a place in designs for Rex parades. The 2012 Proclamation is the work of Rex float design artist Manuel Ponce.

The 2012 Rex Proclamation is available for online purchase to the public from an external website.
2012 Rex Parade Bulletin
During the "Golden Age" of Carnival, parade bulletins were published to give the public a glimpse of parade themes and float designs. This tradition was renewed in 2002, and the 2012 bulletin beautifully depicts the theme "Lore of the Ancient Americas" with original art and elegant designs for each float in the 2012 Rex Procession.

Bulletins are available for online purchase to the public from an external website.
