Large Printable Posters

The above picture was one I used for a magazine ad in 1986, The picture was composed and taken by photographer Mike Graves. He used an old sheet of plywood that was on the floor of his father’s garage for many years, to catch oil drips from an antique car.

On this somewhat dirty rustic backdrop, he laid out a brand new pristine Fuso frame, surrounded by various tools. Some were tools he borrowed from me, others were from his father’s antique tool collection. The result, a very interesting black and white art photo.

The magazie ad can be seen left. When Mike Graves sent me the original file a few years back, he described the picture as being, “Sharp as a tack.”

It is, the detail is pretty amazing. I set this picture up in PDF format as a printable 24 in. x 18 in. poster, and downloaded the file to my Bike Registry website.

Here is the Link: https://davemoultonregistry.com/pdffiles.html

If this link fails to open you can go to the Navigation Bar at the top of this blog page. Click on "Owner's Registry," then click on the button that says "PDF Files"

Just find a business that has a large format digital printer, and get a copy printed for yourself. It will fit in a standard 24 x 18 poster frame.

There is no need to copy the file, if you know of someone who has a large format digital printer, you can simply email them the above link, and they can download the file and print you a copy direct from the web page. I had two test copies printed on semi-gloss paper and the results were good. Try not to handle the prints too much before they are dry.

Another 24 x 18 poster (Above.) is a copy of one I had printed for the 1990 Interbike Show. It is a color picture of a Fuso frame built in Columbus Max tubing. It has all the specs printed at the bottom. This too can be download and printed from the same page on my Registry website.

Make sure the printer is set on “Print full size.” Feel free to print copies for your own use without further permission from me. Both these posters will fit in a standard 24 x 18 inch poster frame. These are quite inexpensive to buy from places like Target and Wal-Mart.

This is a plus as the original posters were 25 x 19 inches and require an expensive custom made frame. I re-formated the file to the standard 24 x 18. Original copies of this poster are appearing on eBay for $250 or more. You can print your own copy for a fraction of that price.

There are also other PDF files of articles I wrote for “Cycling” and “Velo-News” back in the 1970s, and other interesting stuff, like spec sheets for the Fuso and Recherche, and prices from the late 1980s. These are in standard 11 x 8.5 format that you can print on you own home printer.
