I'm hoping McBob calls that out in the intro ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Pile of Bones" was a long used term that's dissappeared as Regina has grown since I was a kid. I instantly recognized it's significance and thought that aspect was quite neat. The Regina poster had much more real history behind it them the other Canadian posters thus far. Yeah but you do know that most people on the planet are completely unaware that a place called Regina Canada even exists, and for the ones that DO know about it, it's just a dumb vagina joke, right?

Captain SK Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Agreed. Being from Regina I thought the poster was cool. They went with a theme I totally didn't expect which I appreciated the rest of planet earth aside.😂 37 minutes ago, estrangedtwat said: Yeah but you do know that most people on the planet are completely unaware that a place called Regina Canada even exists, and for the ones that DO know about it, it's just a dumb vagina joke, right? 2 hours ago, estrangedtwat said: Wow. I wish I could say "oh yeah, I knew it as soon as I saw it that Buhler was back and that poster is an instant classic." But I have to admit, it didn't impress me at all. I haven't been impressed with a poster since Europe. I admit to knowing nothing about the histories/cultures of the various regions of Canada though. If I were in charge of posters I'd be consulting with locals about what the posters could possibly represent. I was equally unimpressed with the American leg though. Here's hoping it picks up by the last leg. Actually I kind of disagree as far as the Regina poster goes.

Captain SK Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I ended up with an extra Regina litho as I bought an extra for a family member that passed on it. I don't want to sell it. I would rather trade it for another cool litho. Anyone interested? Send me a message and cheers all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with how limited and rare some of the designs are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAFC Nick Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Hey guys, Sorry have been looking through the thread - can anyone confirm the following for me please? - Dimensions of the European lithos? - Does it vary by country-to-country or are they all standard size? - If they do vary, can you confirm the London 1+2 sizes please? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! European lithos are 17.5" x 23" (440mm x 584mm) The only exceptions are: Vienna (slightly narrower) and Paris (slightly smaller) London 1 and London 2 are both 440mm x 584mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mansin Humanity Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Moral of the story I never told, I need some cash. Realistically, how much could I get from unloading a Nashville litho in near-mint (if not mint) condition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kira Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 On 26/08/2017 at 4:08 AM, amaninjapan said: Guys... guys. We were overthinking it and looking it it from completely the wrong light. Winnipeg litho is based on this image from the Manitoba Department of Mines and Natural Resources from almost a hundred years ago. I thought I KINDA recognized the art style and sure enough, after being pointed in the right direction, it turns out it's a style that is synonymous with a very famous poster artist by the name of Tom Purvis. I recognized the artwork but never knew the artist's name until now. If you've ever seen old British propaganda posters (which Purvis did a few of) or the classic series of vintage London Rail posters, you would probably recognize the style. But if you're like me, you'd have no idea about the name of the artist. Well, now I know. I can't confirm whether the original Manitoba artwork is by Tom Purvis but it is at least done to imitate his style. Some of his famous rail posters: Thank you for that! Great sleuthing!
