Art & Inspiration Posters in the garage

not much space with all the model boxes getting in the way

 

Here is an old Ford sales poster i had made from cardboard, circa 32-33.

 

I find wall space to be in short supply,,,my wife bought some posters last weekend at Back to the fifties,,I am going to glue em to card board and tack em to the ceiling,,,got plenty of that

 

Mel (DIRTIEST DEVIL) painted this for me to put behind my tent at my Sugar City booth. It's the coolest thing I own I think and I would recommend him to do one for you as well!!!!

I can't belive I ain't seen no girlie posters 'r calendars...

How 'bout some 20+ year old inappropriate Snap-On Calendars:






Don't have room fer' much more.

All the walls is covered n' shelves n' such.

 

Every shop needs a vintage pinup calendar. I just love little dogs

 

No room in the garage but those and more are inside the house.

 

I just hang parts and other things I find along the way. Nothing better

 

I have been threatening to put up a bunch but in the 8 years since I built the place, I don't have anything on the walls of a 41'x88'x12 but a 6ft Scooby Doo that my exwife gave me from a store display. I know STRANGE HUh

 

One of my favorites: 1954 Kaiser dealership showroom floor banner. Original and in great shape. It's huge though, like 10 feet wide.

 

Here is one of mine, I have others but you know

 

The contractor has just dug the ditch for footings on a two car detached
garage in the back yard. Hopefully, when it's completed there will be space
for some of my car pictures and music pics/posters. There will be shelving
in some areas that will eat up wall space, but I may have doors on at least
some of them.....those make good "wall space substitutes".

Definitely some cool looking garage art out there............thanks for
sharing.

 

Found on another forum.

 

Impossible to top the tank top girls. It costs a bag-o-dough to frame stuff so.. Most of mine are rolled up in tubes, don't even remember what I've got. Here's a few I have out.

 

So Cal Speed Shop used to have one in a catalog a few years ago of about 5 guys workin on a car, the perspective was from inside the engine bay. Pretty cool shot.

 

i cut down BANNERS at every race i go to. about had to fight for a couple of them. my walls are covered with them.

 

Yo Jeffry, thanks for plug buddy! That thing does look old. Sweet!

I was just looking for the gas pedal thread with kiwi Kev. And was interested in this threads headline. Actually in garage now going through stuff to get rid of and have been coming across
so many vintage posters.

 

I'm studying the principals of oil clean up today. And girls!

 

Theres always one real miserable bastard who rates these threads one, theres more to car culture than just cars. Its shit like this that makes your garages so interesting to look at.

 

My favorite garage poster is a cardboard sign I pulled off of a telephone pole in Farmer City , Il. It advertised the Imperial Hell Drivers Stunt show for the county fair. Not just Hell Drivers , but Imperial Hell Drivers. Recently went to see my Son-In-Laws dad's new garage and he had the same poster! "course noth'in can top a wall of vintage Playboy Playmates. Indy

 

Igot that Snap on one when I had my "57 Post.
Still got it today.
