RetroPatents. com sent me some prints they made based on imagery and artwork from vintage technology patents! I think this is a great idea for posters to deck your geeky halls with

Pretty cool idea. But I can print it myself.
Seriously, this is one of those things you see at a fiends' house and say -cool- and they say -thanks, I did it myself. - Which could consistt of basically any minor art. But nobody would ever sell it, since it's something they did in 10 minutes.
Except some people actually sell it. And other people buy it. I'm speechless.

Or better yet download the image from the retropatent website (free). Open in photoshop, enlarge to the size you want, sharpen if needed, save. Go to your nearest print shop, print for like 2 bucks at high resolution. the end.
Cost: about 3 bucks for 12 x 18 at high res black and white.
This costs like 30 bucks. major rip off.

Hey LGR, I just want to say that I really love what you do and your videos, and I've been watching a ton of them recently. You've introduced me to all sorts of cool tech and video games I had no idea about, and now I really want to start going to Goodwill a lot.
Keep on doing what you're doing!

The jokey company logo in the lower right ruin the product. Who at that company thinks the logo adds anything the customer wants to see? Look at 5: 00 it is crowding out the elegant whitespace in the bottom. The logo is closer to the name then the title above it. Are these people designers or just printers?

3: 13 I had really no idea that two italian engineers from Olivetti S. p. A. had the floppy disc drive patent! I'm not sure the name Olivetti means anything in the USA or the rest of the world but here in Italy it was more or less a synonym of information technology back in the day.

I'm normally not a fan of these kinds of things but holy crap do I like the Tamagotchi print. Unfortunately they are a little on the pricey side compared to colored posters. Plus I could use that money to farther fund my Tamagotchi problem with actual toys instead of posters. xD

I love this and I will be definitely be. downloading a couple of this and have them profesionally printed.
I'm very interested in your craft as a framer now XD. You should make a video of yourself making a custom frame for those prints.

I don't get why all you people think it's simple as using a household printer to make this. If you want a high quality print, you're going to need special equipment for that not to mentioned it seems like the artwork on patents were touched up.

4: 08 Tribes! It's always awesome to see a Tribes box, that was my first online game back in 1999. :D
I'd played all of the previous incarnations since earthsiege 1(including Cyberstorm. Still my favorite game series!
