IBM Ads, posters, and greeting cards

[bettablue]

OK, so I'm an IBM nut. I'm not the only one.

I would like to get some original IBM PC ads, brochures, and greeting cards, all featuring the Little Tramp. I actually have a couple of the cards, but what I want to do is make like a shrine of IBM "Tranmp" to honor my IBM 5150 PC and it's IBM 5161 expansion unit.

Eventually, multi page ads will be cut and fit to make them a seemless as possible, greeting cards will be used to make a collage and framed, single greeting cards will also be framed, and eventually even IBM advertising posters will be placed into a movie poster frams with surround illunination.

Please let me know if you have anythign that will fit me needs. Photos will be a great assistance, and of course, I'll need to know what you want, including postage for these items.

Thanks much.

Around ten years ago I sent IBM a letter requesting information, they went out of their way to send original posters etc all the way back to New Zealand. Ten years later, I have no idea where they went, but point of the story is that it might be worth contacting IBM (maybe explain your situation, and attach a photo of your 5150 setup) - if you got to the right people you may receive something awesome.

Things may have changed in ten years, but worth a shot.

Good luck!

Yep, you are definitely not the only IBM nut. :D I can just imagine a shrine to the little tramp, with a huge framed picture in the middle, smaller framed pictures and ads on the sides, and scented candles in all the spaces lighting a dark room!

That sounds like more of a cult shrine
