Sorry, O/T but, you don't by any chance know if anyone sells this old advert as a metal sign or poster? Where did you find the original image?

You could try;

The Opie Collection has loads of old ads like this one, a good many of which can now be bought as metal signs, posters, coasters, fridge magnets, mouse mats, etc. Hope this is of help to you.

Hi Rich
I must say I've enjoyed your Etape Blogspot during the year
The image is indeed from a photograph. I have an ordinary digicam. In it you can play with the images in a limited way-of which this is one
It's an ordinary HP Photosmart R727, which I bought as the local Jessops was having a sale, and were more or less giving it away. I found the features after I bought it“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best..." Ernest Hemingway0 -

My girlfriend did this 'advert' on Photoshop for a photography course she was doing. Had to take a picture of the saddle, cut it out, then generate various layers with the background and text on.

Ver' nice. I thought those saddles were the benchmark in comfort....and look really good too. Have I got it the wrong way round?“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best..." Ernest Hemingway0 -

For the majority of people (myself included), they are very comfortable. I think the point she was making is that it looks sooooo good that you wouldn't even contemplate whether it is comfortable when buying it.0 -

Thanks Jashburnam
It'd take courage to ride the first pair, wouldn't it (unless you were very good/confident)
I really like the second pair“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best..." Ernest Hemingway0 -
Yeah the second pair look great don't they, why not vote for them - they may i believe the winning design will be "rolled out" by Campy and I'd love a pair!
