Good "Think Different" poster find

[snuci]

I did pretty well on an almost complete set of 11" x 17" Think Different posters on eBay.  I wonder why no one else bid?

Edit: Never mind.  I didn't notice it was Canadian shipping only.  That'll do it.

That and they are the small ones. The BIG ones are harder to come by. My high school still has them in their Macintosh shrine.

I'm kicking myself because I had a shot at a 24" x 36" set.  Normally these didn't come in a set but it was sent to someone at Corel Corporation.  I stopped at $120 with another bidder.

This smaller set will actually be functional. I have a frame in my office where I'll cycle through them periodically.  I've always loved them and I work in higher education so they'll feel "at home"

Im kicking myself too. When they came out I could have got several sets for free. I am not sure why, but I was not interested! Maybe that makes you feel better!

Those are nice at that size  -very useable.  The larger ones souls require so much space to display, or store.

yeah that set that sold for around 300$ on ebay, I was going to bid, but not that high... even though its a great price for the 10 posters.

We still have two of the smaller posters hanging on the walls of our school - one above a water fountain and the other between a CA and the classroom where I take Español. Both are in very good condition, which is nice. I'm not sure if they're original or re-prints.

I had one each of the full-size sets that were released. I gave a number away to other apple geek friends over the years.

I have Einstein, Jim Henson and Buzz Aldrin in my home office.

I had a friend who worked at Chiat/Day, so I got some smaller-sized alternates that weren't released and a copy of the book as well.

Who were the alternates?

 

[kastegir]

They were the same people, just alternate pictures, used for other locations, like bus ads or billboards.

I got my 24x36" sets directly from Apple.   Never hung them, I have em stored away.  market for them doesn't seem great right now so I'm waiting until the value goes back up before I try selling them again.
