What do you think LEGO would think of us selling such a poster at shows? I
know they had a problem when some one was selling shirts with classic space
minifigs, so I'd think they'd be a bit concerned about a poster with their
train designs.

Hi All,
I printed the main train poster at 18"x24" and it is really cool. I even
gave a couple away as Christmas gifts. But I don't believe many of you have
access to large format printers, and bring this image on a CD to a copy
center would cost a ton to print, so...

Jeroen has agreed to let me offer his main train poster for sale. I did some
research and found that a small run of ~150, on an 4 color offset printer,
at 18"x24", on nice glossy thick poster paper, will cost about $400.  I
think I can sell ~40 of these and thus cover my expenses if I sell it for
$9.50ea + ~$3.50 shipping ($3.50 will cover a small quantity).

What is the interest level here?
Do clubs want to buy larger quantities for resale???

directly. If there is little responce I'll just table it.

I'd want one personally and would pay that price although it is a LITTLE
spendy. But i'm a fanatic. I think for clubs to have some to sell at shows,
the sell point at the show would have to be closer to 5 USD meaning you'd
need to sell them to the club for a skosh less than that if they took 10-20
of them...

Good idea, it's a great poster.
