So one day I just placed some time aside, and busted out the ole digital camera, and started doing what has been long past due. Update the pictures !! And I have to say I am pretty happy considering how quickly I turned them out. At first it took some time to get my grove back on with PhotoShop once again, but once I was in it, I was really into it. I still have a handful of posters still to update, but I have about 95% of them done. I still have a bunch that I have not listed on eBay or my Amazon Webstore until recently.

I also have listed some posters, that from past car shows and swap meets have been handled too rough. Some beat up torn and ripped prints that I think someone would love to have up in the garage. Those posters went to the auction block on ebay. It is very time consuming , taking pictures of the flaws and writing about  the damages, but it is fun. I really enjoy the artwork of all the posters.

These poster pictures turned out really great, this 1962 Ascot is a very popular print, and now looks almost as good online as the print . The blog, ebay store , and amazon webstore will look more cleaner and uniform with these new pix.

     I dig these posters so much. It makes for such a fun hobby. When ever I put together these orders to get shipped out, I always lay them out and take a look at the prints before I roll it up for the tube and say “Man , this is an awesome poster !!” .. or “I LOVE the art work on this one !!” . And most of the time my wife will laugh at me in the background, because I say it so often. And I tell her they ARE cool, they ARE awesome. Like the one today , the 1956 Dodge City Motorcycle Racing Poster Print. The motorcycle racing prints are great. This is simple art , very classy . This 50′s reproduction print measures 14.25 inches wide x 22 inches tall. A nice tall print that looks fantastic all framed up. Framing these totally takes them up to another notch. Very cool retro art deco. National Motorcycle Rally. World Famous Riders A.M.A. Sanction. Dodge City Kansas. Labor Day Weekend. Sept 1-2-3, 1956.

Free shipping thru the Amazon WebStore on orders of $30 or more. Father’s Day is coming up soon, that mean the LA Roadster show is soon too. An awesome show to attend. So for this Father’s Day buy him a cool poster for his garage or workshop. You know he will love it. It still amazes me how many people use Amazon more than eBay these days. And also how much eBay is trying to be like Amazon with stuff like “Daily Deals”  and such. I am not sure what website I found , but it does a comparison when you plug in two websites addresses in. And the graph that came up was so impressive. The Amazon hit counter was climbing and has been for a few years now, as for eBay it was down down down. I know everywhere I go these days its Amazon, Amazon , Amazon all over sites with item links to products. They totally know what they are doing.

    The time was 1962 the place was Southern California at the Ascot Speedway !! One of the top 10 coolest poster prints that we carry. Large in size, which makes it look perfect in any workshop or garage. Or even have this print framed up and hung up in the office at work. A nice reproduction of some vintage motorcycle racing memorabilia. Father’s Day is creeping up on us fast, and what better gift than to get this rare and hard to find print for dad this year. Dad will just love it. We carry a good variety of poster print from Midget racing to Airplane racing, some grad racing , and even a few boat racing prints. Soon to come will be some collections of certain eras or race tracks at a good price for the grouping. 

    Trades…. trades are also welcome. Not really sure how to market that and or work out the details, but drop me an email of what you have. I will probably put together a nice “Likes” page that will have some of the stuff that I am looking for or need. Of course I am open to what you have that is interesting. I have found a couple of websites that have a “trade” section, I just have not dug into it enough to post anything at this time. There just never seems to be enough time in the day for all that I want to to do.

     If you have a website that is related to any of the posters I have to offer, drop me a line. Maybe we could trade a few posters for some Ad Space on your site in exchange. I really do not want to pay a fee for impressions on a website, but I am into trading. I think if I have a poster you would like I am sure that your site will have others interested in the same prints. So again, drop me a line if you have a website that has some good traffic and a lot of impressions  and we can work out a deal.
