Does anyone recognise this poster?

in Babylon 5
I don't know where it originally came from. It's been on the wall of my lab for many, many years now.

    No but I recognize that Heechee rendevous book though! :D

    Seriously this image of the station was an early version. I've seen 8x10 photo prints of it at various Conventions. It's definately a Foundation era image, likely done on the amiga 2500 farm they had before they went PC...

    Possibly a promo pic from PTen or something for the pilot...

    I have that poster. It's still rolled up in the poster container. :-)
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    So... where did you get it?
  • AkrovahAkrovah Ranger
    I want one!

    I don't thinkl it would be a promo poster from the pilot though. The victory tag wasn't used untill the end of season 2. before that it was always the last best hope for peace.

    The tag almost makes me think it's a fan creation rather than an official poster. That, and the lack of any WB or Babylonian logos.

    There's WB copyright stuff at the bottom in very small print.

    I got it off Ebay a few years ago.
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    Do you know where the seller got it? I'm trying to find out where it originally came from.

    Unfortunately, this one is in really poor condition. It's got tape marks on the corners, holes where it was pinned to the wall, it's discoloured from the crap in the air in the lab and it's really, really brittle.
  • StrikerStriker Provided with distinction
    No, I don't. I bought it about 3 years ago.

    Have you tried searching ebay?
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    You know I'm too lazy to do something like that. :D

    I dunno if its still as prevelant as it used to be, but i used to see this poster in ebay ALL the time, dozens and dozens of sellers seeme to have them.

    I have that poster on my wall, along with two other B5 posters + Into the Fire poster. Got them through a shop that sells scifi/fantasy stuff here in Finland, quite a few years ago though.
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    Sounds like it's just a standard poster then.
  • bobobobo (A monkey)
    Don't recognize it, but I do recognize the Gang of Four's "[URL=http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201633612/qid=1105323606/sr=2-1/ref=pd_ka_b_2_1/002-4783353-5873664]Design Patterns[/URL]" in the lower left corner
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    Yes. Books I'm currently reading or using made handy paperweights.

    You could get that poster in Virgin megastores here in the UK for a while, at least IIRC...
