I would like a JMB poster on my wall very much.
I would also, however, prefer to do so for very little.
Does anyone know where I could acquire a high-res JMB poster scan, or vector rip-off?
I'm sure someone somewhere has made a replica.
Any help, my loves?

surely with helvetica bold and some randoms shapes you could recreate your favorite.

JMB used Akzidenz..
..I don't have the time to recreate one. I have some of his books so it wouldn't be hard, just time consuming.
I just don't wanna pay ££ for a genuine poster.

Just go onto google, find an image of a poster you like and then just copy it in illustrator. If you have a book of images it would be better to take a scan and re-make it yourself.
All you need is helvetica and some guides.
I made this one in Illustrator just now (very quickly) to prove a point. It also teaches you lots about typography:
then just get it printed!

and me! it's kill-a-printer day!
lol baskerville, you are most awesome.
To be honest, I am lazy.
I think I might make a mini-site of jmb poster replicas. With the AI for fussy people to touch-up and re-upload.
Then we can all have fake jmb posters on our walls.
I will print Baskerville's poster and it shall go on my wall, possibly adding a baskerville-related title.

someone make me this one, it's my favourite. Circular grids blow my mind:

YES! haha, that's basically the one I want on my wall.
Creative review did a motion tribute to JMB, they used that design in the motion, and it exploded and flew around. Looked real good. I have a 30MB .mov somewhere, must find it.
Yeah email the AI if you like.

Yeah those are nice low-res poster scans, but I'm after perfection.
Anyway, I have been persuaded to just replicate them myself in spare time.

I recreated about 5 vectors of his posters to print and put on my wall last year. Email if you want the AI.
