GT40 Posters

Hi
I have just received the poster shown below from Alain Boudoin in France - It shows every GT40 (+ the Lola GT) raced at Le Mans between 1963 and 1969. Alain has painted similar themes for different marques and is always at Le Mans - he even saw the Lola GT race in 1963! Although these are for sale at the Le Mans museum (40 euros), you can buy them cheaper from him direct (30 euros to the UK including shipping). Not sure of the shipping to NZ.
They are limited to 300 and are signed and numbered - I was lucky enough to get #63 (year of the Lola) and #69 (year of the 4th Le Mans win)
Alain's email is [email protected].
There may be the odd decal missing from a few of the cars but it is a striking piece.
I am not connected with Alain in any way other than being a satisfied customer.
Cheers!
Rob

Rob B,
That is a great poster (whether the detail is that good or not), I think I will be ordering myself one.
Rob K,
I think if it was scanned & distributed at much higher resolution it could be entering the grounds of copyright infringement. As it is I guess it could be questionable, but hardly reproduceable quality, and likely to generate more sales. Maybe Rob B could get away with scanning just one of the cars, to provide a sample of the detail?
Ron,
I was going to move this thread to the Memorabilia section, but don't seem to be able to do that (presumably as I am not a moderator of this forum just the other one). Could you do that for me?

I haven't seen the other posters, but I have the Chadwick photographs. They are very sharp and clear, and in addiiton to having lots of GT40s in them are kind of neat in that they are contact prints from a Cirkut camera, which makes a huge negative. Doug is one of the few people still using a Cirkut, for as long as Kodak or whoever make the film. His efforts deserve support- he is a good photographer and he is helping keep an almost-lost art alive.
