Title: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Stinky Wizzleteats on September 15, 2010, 07:10:58 PM Looking to spruce up my garage and trying to find an online business that would sell this sort of stuff. Looked at Art.com and they are really expensive! >:(
Mainly Ducati inspired, vintage racing (Like the Duke pic) or even Ducati signage/posters. Doesn't have to be Ducati, as long as I like it. Any ideas? ??? Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: fastwin on September 16, 2010, 04:14:10 AM I've got a garage full of framed Ducati prints and posters but I can't remember where I ordered them. Some are real old but half of them are just a few years old. I googled Ducati posters but I cannot find the site where I got the newer ones. [bang] It had all the classic race posters and the print ads too. They had a ton of Ducati posters. All the sites that showed on google didn't have 20% of the ones from the site I used. I'll keep looking.

I'm doing up my garage in the next few weeks now that it is cleaned out. I have vintage motorcycle and automotive adverts, some of my own photos, and the prerequisite nudie calendars all queued up.

Define "Adequate quality"? Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Artful on September 16, 2010, 05:52:26 AM Define "Adequate quality"? It kind of comes down to you. BARE minimum is 72 dpi@100% scale. At that res you will still see some pixelization. 150 dpi@100% will look about perfect, and 300 dpi@100% will look like it came off a 35mm slide. From three feet away they will all look perfect. Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Jaman on September 16, 2010, 06:04:14 AM best. poster. ever.

Post by: sbrguy on September 16, 2010, 07:27:23 AM i like this lady's posters, and she has prints you can get framed you have to email her for others that are not shown on the site
www.facebook.com/elizabethraabphotography (http://) she has a stockpile of photos that are not yet for sale just ask her about them. Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Scotzman on September 16, 2010, 08:05:17 AM Staples does posters up to a certian size, just email or bring them the file and they'll blow it up. It has (should) have hi res or there will be pixels as the OP mentioned.
I did some vacation pics and they were pretty cheap. Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: causeofkaos on September 16, 2010, 08:19:34 AM most of the time your local dealer has a wealth of posters.

And the wife for some odd reason won't let me put it on a wall inside the house. What's wrong with her? [laugh] Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Monster Dave on September 17, 2010, 05:19:13 AM LOL, some guys at a local shop have it hanging up on the wall in the front of the shop and it quite literally is the size of the wall!!!
Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: the_Journeyman on September 19, 2010, 07:27:57 AM I always liked the Ducati People set of ads that Ducati used a few years back. I'd love to have a set of those in the garage, but they seem to have disappeared ~

Post by: Grampa on September 21, 2010, 06:15:15 PM found these in an antique store in Cambria
I found some cool reproduction prints for the garage Isle of Man TT (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t180/bobspapa/009-5.jpg?t=1285120127) Nurburgring (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t180/bobspapa/008-13.jpg?t=1285120200) Daytona (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t180/bobspapa/007-6.jpg?t=1285120200) Sacramento (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t180/bobspapa/006-7.jpg?t=1285120200) there were a ton of others... old drag racing posters, old vw posters, old porsche posters. I even found a bunch of old motorcyclist mags from the 50's. I got one, and when I opened it..... poof.... Ducati ad :) ( so I framed it) (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t180/bobspapa/012-9.jpg?t=1285120891) Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Stinky Wizzleteats on September 21, 2010, 06:21:28 PM ^^^Those are AWESOME! ^^^ [drool]
Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Grampa on September 21, 2010, 06:28:30 PM ^^^Those are AWESOME! ^^^ [drool] They had tons of them. Lot's of old German BMW ads. I would have got more, but was running out of room as to where to put them in the garage. There were two seperate store in Cambria that had them, so I assume they both got them from the same source. I've looked all over on line, but cant find a place that sells the same reproductions. These are like 11x 14, they had larger ones, buy I wanted more so I went with the small ones. they were only 10 bucks each. They also had some cool band flyers too. Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Stinky Wizzleteats on September 22, 2010, 12:19:35 PM Great find!
I guess I'll have to keep looking, have found a few on ebay but they aren't that great. I really want that Davida helmet one with that strumpet on the Guzzi. This one: (http://i947.photobucket.com/albums/ad320/Super_TIB/10408597-davida-motorcycle-helmets.jpg) [drool] [drool] [drool] [drool] [drool] Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Artful on September 22, 2010, 02:34:55 PM I could print that, it will be pretty grainy though without a higher quality version. Would look great from three feet away, blocky closer up.
Title: Re: Motorcycle Prints/Posters? Post by: Rameses on September 22, 2010, 05:39:11 PM Don't know if you're familiar with rasterbation or not (no, it's not dirty [roll] ) but that might be an option. For those that don't know what I'm talking about, you plug a photo in and tell it how big you want it and the result is an image that prints on multiple sheets of regular size paper which are then arranged properly to form the large image. Damn. That was a hell of a run-on sentence. http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/ (http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/) Here's an example of some images.
