Think Different Poster Series

[dual64bit]

Can anybody direct me to where I can find more historic information on the Think Different Campaign and Poster Series.

I know there were 4 or 5 poster series, but I'd like to know which posters belong to which series.. and so on.

Thanks in advance!

I don't know if this will be of any use but

http://www.missingbite.com/posters.html

That has images of all the posters you mentioned.

And this one is quite amusing...:D

i'm not sure, but the whole series might be covered in this book:

http://redlightrunner.com/19yearofthin.html

it's quite pricey, but maybe you can find it somewhere just to look through to find the information you need.

Thanks for the replies, both have been some-what helpful. If any more viewers know where I can find more information, please post! ;)

I REALLY want the Ansel Adams poster.

I think it is like 200 bucks.

The significant other would cut my nuts off.

The smaller (11x17) ones? Those 10 were/are a set that were distributed to educators. I think that redlightrunner sell the set for $300!

p.s. I have 2 of these on my wall at home, another 2 I've just bought of eBay and another one I am bidding on now... So far the most I've had to pay was £30 for the Jim Henson/Kermit one...

also. i THINK, and i could be wrong, but i think that they had the white apple logo, and not the multi colored

[wrxguy]

If thats the Kermit one that was on ebay UK about 2 days ago, then I'm one of the bidders you beat! :p

[derajfast]

haha no i dont....yeah i remember hitchock one being there too.....

[robbieduncan]

Sorry! The same seller seems to get more posters every so often so you might get another chance soon...

He sent me one of those 'second chance' offers, so he's got more then one. But by then I'd already won this (http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5243327090) which I can't believe didn't go for more.

That's a good price, but you need a pretty big space to put it up!

[dual64bit]

Yeah. I have 16 total. Just trying to figure out which ones I don't have.

I have:


Adams
Miles Davis
Henson
Jackie Robinson
Buz Aldrin
Lucy
Ghandi
Amella Earnhart
Tom Edison
Ted Turner
Picasso
Hitchock
Joan Baez
Einstein
Caser Chavez
Churchill


Some posters have the multi-colored logo and some have the solid white logo depending on which series they were a part of. A series consisted of about 5 posters and there were about 4 or 5 series.

I know I'm missing:


Rosa Parks
Martha Graham
Sinatra
Fenamin


not sure which other ones I'm missing.

EDIT= A series was the 24x36 poster set, the 11x17 had different people or/different poses with more people then the actual "poster series (24x36)"
