Update : More Prints Are Available!! SIZE 20x14. 130 Weight Gloss Card Stock
Well since the reponse was so huge I had to make some more!! Since I learrned a little bit from the first round I had to change it up just a bit this time. I had used free Priority mail triangle shippers last time which weren't ideal. So now I have hard cardboard shipping envelopes. This will work out much better and the print will not be rolled this time it will be shipped flat. I was supposed to not get the prints until next wednesday, but the printer called tonight and said I can come get them tomorrow!! How cool is that. So I plan on getting these ready all weekend and monday and tuesday so I can ship them out. If you order them Fri-Sat-Sun they will go out Monday - If your order them in the week they will go out at the latest Friday June 19th. Just doing the 20 was slightly overwhelming and took some time!!
The new Print is actually even better than the first round , we printed them on 130 weight gloss cardstock which is just a better print and looks even better too! Originally I had this printed on the card stock that the printer had left over from a job and for them to order more it would've taken quite some time, since it was custom cut. Sadly I was bummed instead of getting cheaper it went up a few bucks but that is due to the new stock and the additional cost of the shipping sleeves. Im trying here I'm not a poster seller Im just trying to share a very cool piece of racing history!!
The Story - I had purchased a bundle of early porsche literature and old racing folders and flyers. In this old racing history photo book was a folded flyer about 75% of the size of an 8.5x11 sheet of paper it was a really cool mini tri-fold flyer that was printed in 1954. Everything that I got was from the 50s. All of it was very old. The flyer was pretty damaged and had some coffee stains. So I worked with a friend who restores pictures and old paper materials professionally. He helped restore the print back to what we think would've been the original colors. It was pretty faded but we used some good reference material on printing methods in the 50s to match the available colors back then. We left a bit of the aged patina from the flyer in the final proof. Once the image was restored my buddy had a printer print them up and that is what I am offering here. It was funny I did this entire project just so I could get a couple large prints to frame up one for the shop and one for the garage! I have 3 other flyers that I found along with this one that we will do over the course of this year. Its rather expensive to do as it takes quite a bit of time. I have no interest in being a art dealer!!These are just really neat pieces that I hope you all enjoy as much as I do!!
Once this 100 is done these will not be offered by me again! So Here are the details for ordering.
1 Print - Priority Mail - $15.85
2 Prints - Priority Mail - $25.85
All of this will be handled via Paypal - So Paypal - jwernquist@wi.rr.com and in the subject put (Poster S Registry) Helps me stay organized,
Just for the fun of it. The person who orders the 54th print gets an awesome surprise bonus! These are also available on the 356 Registry too. The prints are only offered on the S Registry and the 356 Registry.
If you were one of the 20 who ordered the original please shoot me a PM and let me know how many you ordered, if you want the updated and better paper print, I am happy to replace your original if you want!!
Any questions please let me know thanks for all the support and If there is a problem or your print gets damaged during shipment, I have left-overs just in case that happens. The darn Post Office damaged a couple during the last shipment, so if there is a problem please let me know so I can correct it!!
