Title: Suggest awesome posters to print
Post by: littlemathletics on November 18, 2008, 06:43:16 PM

The place I work at has a really fucking enormous printer - one of the A2 ones. Actually, might even be A1. Not sure. We also have a marketing guy who's leaving in less than two weeks, so he's not really bothered about misuse of company property at this point.

So - what awesome things can I print? I  guess they'd need to be pretty high res, and I'm probably going to limit myself to 10 or so posters, but oh boy can we have some fun here. Suggest things!

What exactly do you want. Or don't you know what you want?

I'll say the inevitable suggestion that will be offered here that you print off something homoerotic or something alluding to homoerotica.

steal "The Hallucinogenic Torreador" from the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, FL, scan it, and print that.

I'd say res has to be at least 1200x1600. 150DPI would be handy too.

I'm not sure what I want. I've got the two Purcell Monkey Island covers, and a Steve Ditko Mr A cover I want to get done, but other than that I'm open to many interesting things. NASA stuff sounds a little boring, though.
