1958 Bell Brand Posters

[doug.goodman]

Apologies to anybody who realizes that I have posted in two categories, but the original post that I dredged up was in the pre-1980 postwar card section, and I really feel like this is more of a memorabilia topic. I also think there is a better chance of getting responses in this section, meaning that we can all learn something.

Leon - feel free to delete whichever post that you think is excessive.

I picked up these posters on ebay last week and am curious what info anybody has about them.

When I bought them I had no idea that they constituted possibly an entire "set", and although they are beat up, I am super happy with the purchase.

I'm contemplating taking the advice of Adam Warshaw in his "before/after poster" thread and contacting a company to mount them. Luckily for my wallet, I have zero interest in restoration, they are beautiful just how they are.

Their large (23 X 36) size means they will ultimately probably end up stacked with my uncut sheets on a shelf in my office, never to be seen again. Hahahaha.

According to the 2013 SCD catalog pdf I found via google, there are only these four, but the 2008 SCD pdf that I have on my laptop only lists the Drysdale, so I interpret that to mean there might be others. Anybody have any?
