  6. I’ll play. These are “inspirational” posters from a car plant- would likely be found in the lunch rooms and hallways. For sale in the basement at autorama in Detroit a few years ago, 30 bucks each. Pictures were free. A9446104-E15B-47AB-863D-D18D530B64E0.jpeg 5AA38148-6F64-4D84-8752-890D871841F0.jpeg

  8. Found this jammed behind an old cabinet at a place I worked at.
    These hand painted on board posters were displayed outside pubs, hence there's not many around.
    Plenty of repros though.

    It's a little over 5 feet high.

    61EEA641-9AA4-4213-A1AC-7A49ED3B54A9.jpeg Also I got this . The late Friend of mine pulled it out of a dumpster at the local Ford dealership. He told me that when he died that I was to receive it . His Widow sold his shop last week. I got in contact with her and I took it off the wall . He had nailed it up real well and customized the seat a little bit . If it’s OT delete

    644E6929-E291-411B-928E-1EAFE60CD4E5.jpeg Bought this at a late Friends estate auction. Any ideas about who’s face was put over the original riders face ? Who was the original rider ? There’s a dragon on the tank

    To me the face resembles President Lyndon B. Johnson, but if that is him I have no idea why his face would have been put on that poster.
    The photo at the top shows that LBJ had an appreciation for old Fords, he kept a ‘34 Phaeton on his ranch. At some point it had ‘36 headlights installed and a number of running lights added to the tops of the fenders :eek:

  18. @Okie Pete That certainly looks like the East Bay Dragons MC logo on the side of the tank. Might be a good place to start a google image search.

    Thank Y’all for replies .
    I’ve learned that the picture for the poster was a scene from Wild Angels movie starting Peter Fonda . Yes the face is LBJ . C0EFF158-7586-48B4-BF8C-0C8E34B34E18.jpeg it is a good looking Panhead

    Here's one of my favorites that I got from a concert in D.C. in the late 60's.

    In 2002 I sent this original 1962 Isky poster back to Ed, it had probably cost me .25 or .50 cents when I had sent away for it. I asked Ed to sign it for me and he did but I didn’t expect that he would have it reprinted and pass them out again.
    When he returned it he sent along some Iskenderian swag and a few copies of the duplicated poster. I got to meet Ed at the 2017 Meltdown Drags, the man is a national treasure.
