Original Dome Patrol Poster (2 Viewers)

I just sent out an email to everyone on my list for one. If you did not get the email then you need to pm me or email me at colby.baxter@gmail.com. I am not getting extras made. If you are not on the list you will not be able to get one. Period.

I am gonna take orders until Thursday at 8pm. After that I will email out payment info.

The plan right now is for Optimus to drop the poster off to the print guy on Friday. The print guy said it should take about two days to get done (he is closed on weekends), so I expect to have the posters by Wednesday and then we will handle the getting the posters to everyone part.
 
plan on 70 for the poster and 20 for shipping, it may be less be it won't be anymore than that.
 
Anyone remember this poster? I just pulled it from my Parent's attic. Signed in the 1980's @ JC Penny's I think.

im trying to control my spending! lol
 
Is it too late to order one of these. I saw that last chance was Friday, but I am wondering if you can squeeze me in.
 
email update sent. Posters are done but I want Optimus to see them and make sure they look good before I accept them and send them out!

Are we gonna do this one next?
 
i picked up the original and my copy yesterday. the copy looks good. i noticed a few slight differences, but unless you have the two side by side you wont notice.

i noticed that the contrast is a little higher on the copy. the bright parts are brighter but the dark parts are darker. the skin tones are slightly more orange, but not unrealistically so.

the copies have a white border around them. they are exactly the same size as the original, so i wouldnt suggest trimming the white border off if you plan on putting them in a poster frame. if you are having them custom framed, the framer can just make a mattboard border to cover the white.

when you get your copy, DONT PRESS HARD ON THE SURFACE WITH YOUR FINGERS. the high gloss finish on them makes for the best look, but it will come off on your fingers if you press hard. handle them with care when you get them framed, and they should last forever in the frame.

i hope everyone enjoys them, and im happy that i could give saints fans a piece of memorabilia that was previously almost impossible to find.

the original is on the bottom in the first two pictures, and on the top in the third. the fourth picture is the copy in my frame. i had the original in there before, but now the original is back in the original sleeve and in a poster tube for safekeeping.

I was impressed with the copy. They did a great job. It is sticky, so be VERY CAREFUL! I had to frame, then re-frame about 4 times to get it perfect. The problem I had was the poster was sticking to the glass. So if you frame it yourself, DO NOT Press the poster against the glass. Just rest it. ALSO, Make sure that when you clean the inside of the glass, let it dry COMPLETELY! If you can afford it, get it professionally framed. I bought this frame from Michael's. They have 50% off frames til Saturday!!!!!
