In the 70ts I had the walls of my bedroom completely covered in pictures cut out of mx action and dirtbike( I still have whats left of the mags :( ) and the centre of attention was that poster I would also like another.

My teenage bedroom wall had a poster from Modern Cycle of "Rocket Rex" Staten leading the world around the first corner, at the '75 USGP. Six years ago I found a Modern Cycle, on eBay that had a perfect copy still attached. It is mounted, framed and put under class and is on the wall of the "Man Cave".
I hope you find a copy of your poster!
;D

Any decent studio will be able to do it, Bill. I'm doing more and more restoration work and results are generally better than the original.
Pity you're not round the corner...... ;)

On the subject of posters, I've been on the lookout for this Mr MX one that I had BITD. I've seen a couple on ebay but missed them, probably to someone on the forum. I'm after at least a good copy if possible.

Thanks Bill. A laminated A3 would be preferable however A4 would also be fine. Post code Qld 4559.
I'm sure you're a busy man so get back to me when you are ready .. who knows others might also want one?
-
I will give it a couple of days in case others want one then get them done , in the mean time i will get them priced up and the original picture that hardex wants .

Pretty sure I have that one.... I'll see if it's in the study tonight..
It's a two sided thing - I think it has all the rounds etc listed on the back - were you after both sides? Or just the front?
-
I think I have another year as well..... Sad isn't it... I bought that one (and I think one other) a couple of years ago, then promptly stored away the postage tubes and did nothing with them... ::)

I've found the 1981 Mr Motocross poster, but not this one yet...
-
Hey Hardex, I also have a block mounted one on the wall of my shed. Your welcome to borrow it to copy if you would like. I bought it from the Poster Shop in the "Block Arcade" if you remember where that is ;D a few years ago, but I reckon they would still be able to get them. You might remember i had real big copy mounted in a light box in the window of my first shop.
Regards Stan.

Great to see all those Mr MX posters have been saved and still on display. Still kicking myself for losing mine.
Bill, I'd love an A3 laminated copy for sure. Just let me know. BTW, what year is that one?
Ted, I'll catch up with you at some stage.
Tony, you have way too much vmx Memorabilia. lol.

And one I didn't even know I had....
The Promotional Poster for Gaston Rahier's visit to Oz... When was that? 1976? 1977? The poster say in the corner "Printed in Japan 7609" (September 1976)..
The big blank bit down the bottom was so the various venues could add there own information..

The worst part is that Peter Ledger turned a photo of Roger DeCoster in to and illustration of Steve Gall... AHHHhGGGG!!! :D

An update on the original poster , i have been to the copy shop and its to big for their machines ::)
I have been advised to get a good quality photo taken of it and they can print from that and enhance the faded colours etc.
Im waiting to catch up with DJ as he is my photo expert ;D if he can take a good quality picture of it we can go from there .
Correct me if im wrong (usually am with these things ,when i first got a fax machine many years ago i used to copy what i was faxing so i still had a copy ;D )
Can i then attach and email the pic to anyone who wants a copy to get their own hard copy printed off where ever they may be in the world ???
Or plan B put it on one of those memory dodads and post that to the people ( much cheaper and easier than sending a large hard copy )
Bear with me im an ex motor mechanic now a Towie who still cant programme an 80s VCR :-[ i bought a 50" digital 3D telly and thought it was shit >:( then my 12 yr old daughter did somthing with the remote and its bloody fantastic ;D
The Mr Motocross posters are at the copiers now :) and i will PM those who wanted one .
But can we do the same with those ie copy and email them ???

I bought a copy of that poster a few years ago from a poster stall at the Brisbane motor show. It was NOS I also bought one of John Behrens on a 360 Husky at the same time. I thought I'd hit gold amongst all the modern posters. There might still be some floating about.
