|
Well you can never go wrong with some big framed b&w prints by Ansel Adams....Yosemite alone has enough great pics to choose from. |

How about something like this: |
|
Stone Nudes? |

available with or without topo lines also, ask around at your local gear shop, they often have heaps of posters in their basement/back room lastly, email companies and tell them you're stoked, they'll usually send you a poster |
|
the ansel adams photo's are way out of my price range...i'm a med student living off loans these days. |
|
There's a nice poster of El Capitan here. Galen Rowell's stuff is great, but unfortunately, not many of his Yosemite shots seem to be available as posters. |
|
Jeremy Collins is one of the best climbing artists |
|
Remember the good old days when Rock and Ice, Climbing handed out big posters and sold others from their supply. See if you can find some of the older ones available..often on sale through Chessler Books.com web or catalogs. |

I've seen some nice Petzl posters on eBay for cheap money, the thing that's kept me from buying any is they seem to be an odd, non-standard size. So you would likely be looking at a semi-custom frame job; at the very least a mat would likely need to be cut for it to fit a standard frame. |
|
IF you happen to be near the Red next weekend, during the Rocktoberfest, there certainly will be Petzl and other companies there with free posters available to frame. Most are rolled, not folded so look nice with no creases. 14 by 20 or something like that usual size. |
|
If you just email climbing companies, you can often get them to send you free stickers. Some will even send posters to you just for asking |
|
I found these guys at an arts and music festival in Seattle last month. Lots of cool screen printed artwork, not really climbing art but plenty of cool outdoor themes (mountains, trees, mt. bike, etc). |

has anyone ever seen prints of the stone nudes? No contact info on the website and only lists the book and calendar. |
