Campagnolo "ultimate derailleur" poster
 
Update: New posters are available (2/15). Now there are two versions. The Campy Super Record derailleur ad, and a Campy Brake ad.

I made some more Campagnolo "ultimate derailleur" posters, based on an old Campy Super record ad. I've made these in the past, but i've had an opportunity to make some higher quality ones and thought there may be some interest here.
These were printed on a Kodak digital press with a special matte roller. The matte roller gives a finished result that has no gloss or reflection. In the past i've made these with a semi-gloss finish.

These are 12x18 (actually more like 12 1/8 x 18 1/8). I believe they will fit a standard size frame.
Printed on 100# cover weight stock. (Finch opaque bright white)

I've also taken the time to re-typset this ad to match the original as close as possible. This means that the type and background will have a clean appearance and it no longer looks like a scanned magazine ad.

Prices include shipping:
$19.00 for 1 poster

$26.00 for a set of 2 (1 derailleur and 1 brake poster)

$5.00 each for any additional posters beyond two



please send a pm if you are interested.

Here is a sample of my vector art:

This is awesome. I definitely want one.

Are the jockey wheels pre-cracked?

Me too - both the derailleur and brake versions. They're both decorating the south wall of my bike room.

Ha, I didn't feel up to re doing the brake version yet! I figured I'd spend the time since I arranged for the fancier printing this time.

Frogbutter 01-30-16 08:11 PM

I'm in for one.

The Thin Man 01-31-16 01:39 AM

Please save 2 for me although I'm out of town until the end of next week. I'll be in touch when I return.

LeicaLad 01-31-16 06:41 AM

Done. My order is in!

Many thanks.

Update: I grossly underestimated the cost to ship these posters. The costs ranged from $6.15 - $11.00. I've decided just to charge a flat $8.00 for shipping to make things simple. All of the previous commitments will be honored without shipping costs.

Received my poster today! If I had three thumbs you'd get three thumbs up but all I can give is two. Awesome work Matt on the poster and pro job on the packing. Too bad I couldn't of gotten some of the earlier posters you made. I've got some of the original magazine pages in my shed and this will go up next to the original. Time to run to the thrift store and find a frame.

+100 %

Mine arrived today, too. With the postage and very fine packing, the poster is nearly a gift! Matt, you're taken more than extra steps here!

I gotta go find a better frame than what I had in mind.

Truly excellent work.

Thank you, Matt.

yuoil 02-03-16 04:33 PM

Matt the poster got here today and it is fantastic! It will get a nice frame and I'll be looking for the next poster. I should have gotten two! Going to send you a little extra to cover the shipping too.

Thank you!

lotek 02-03-16 05:19 PM

Matt, sent pm I'm in

I received mine today and I couldn't be more pleased. I will send you the difference to cover the extra shipping cost.

Sir_Name 02-03-16 06:21 PM

Excellent work! The design, print quality, packaging & shipping all exceeded expectations. Really happy with this, thanks.

I'm in for the brake version if you decide to do a run.

mkeller234 02-03-16 09:22 PM

I'm relieved to hear that the posters arrived in tact. Thank you for the flattery, I'm glad you all like them. I can sometimes be overly critical of things that make.

I think I have roughly 30 more if anyone else is interested.

Thanks guys, I do appreciate that. I hope you didn't feel pressure as I am fully responsible to know those costs before hand. Anyway, many thanks.

That ad would be a good riposte to the common "what's really better about expensive" posts

OTS 02-04-16 04:03 PM

Mine arrived today.....and I love it.

First class packaging and first class job on the art work.

Color is deep and rich and the text and art work are sharp.

Keep me in mind Matt for the brake poster

I have framing plans for mine.
