Merchandise Search: MGM/DHS Poster - See photo inside

[NWDMD]

I've posted this before on various websites without luck. For years I've been searching for the 4th poster in this set (MK/EPCOT/AK/MGM). I originally purchased the MK poster, later on a separate trip we bought EPCOT. Unfortunately by our next trip they'd been discontinued. I found the AK poster on ebay but have never even seen the MGM/DHS poster.

Does anyone have this poster? I'd love to see what it even looks like. Does anyone know where I can find one to buy?

Thanks, I'm including a photo of my other posters for comparison.

I have all four. I remember one of them being very hard to find. we had to remove it from the poster stand. I stood guard while the wife grabbed a cast member. They are sadly sitting in a closet since we moved to our new house. I'm not sure I have seen any around lately. i will see what I can find on the interwebs.

DO you remember what year that was?

Any markings on who may have created it?

Those look nice..How big are the portraits?

I've never noticed it until you asked, it says Blakeway Worldwide Panoramas on the bottom of it.
I'd guess it's about 3.5 ft wide x 1 foot tall. I'd love to even see what the MGM studios one looks like. For awhile I've thought about trying to make my own version of it, have it printed and framed. I don't even know what the vantage point is for the MGM one though.

This is all I've been able to find now that I used Blakeway in my search. Tiny image but it looks like they stood just past the Crossroads of the World and it's looking up Hollywood Boulevard. Is that the BAH? What year was the BAH put in? I think the panoramas were around 2004ish?

 

[The Tuna]

Yeah BAH is in there. photo looks to be taken right behind crossroads of the world. I will try to remember to take a picture of mine tonight for you. I wonder if you contacted them would they be able to print one? contract may be over. I think we got ours in January of 2005 now that I think of it.

THis was the listing with that photo http://www.ebay.com/itm/291329368111#cvip_desc

Thanks!! Nice find, I was able to zoom in on that photo to get a better look. I contacted Blakeway, I'll let you know what they say.

 

[The Tuna]

I just emailed them and they don't sell them anymore. Im guessing the license expired.

 

[The Tuna]

YEp. licensing restriction according to them. I wonder if a Hi Res photo could help you try to replicate. If I find mine I will grab one for you. we just moved so its in the heap with everything else that we have neglected. Apparently they don't get to go up in the new living room. They don't match. I'll find a spot though.

From that listing, here's a larger version of it:

I've never seen them before. I would suggest maybe setting up saved ebay search so that it automatically emails you when there are any matches. Good luck!

I've tried to make my own Studios poster before. The hard part is finding a high res photo that has the right dimensions. Most free photos I find are not wide enough to crop and fit the dimensions of the other posters.
