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.
BTW I'm not doing this to make any real money. I'm sure it will be more
hassle that any extra cash made above my costs. This is truly a great poster
but I got a feeling I'll be left with many, there just aren't that many of
us! :(
Dwayne and I discussed this and we would use BricWorx for selling the posters.

| (...) 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 (...)

| Hi, good idea! I will ask at 1000steine.de how many we may need in germany and then you might send one big roll to Germany? I persoanlly really would like to have a professional printed version! Regards, HoMa (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.publish)

| Thanks everyone for publicly responding! As for the legal issues, per my request it is being reviewed by LEGO. Also, today I found out that to get a 18"x24" print done at Kinko's is $18.00ea. so $9.50 for a print seems reasonable. It also seems (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.publish)
