03/07/2004: "SEASCAPE underwater wave poster - first of it's kind."
We printed 500 on 240 gsm paper. Everyone liked the shot. There are no copies left.
Poster size is 686cm X 1010 cm. They looked great with a 250 watt spot lamp to highlight.
Everyone who has owned one of these tells me of the many constant compliments received.
A limited edition with no reprints. The original 35mm transparency was lost by the printers.
I didn't initially realise how popular this underwater wave poster was. Originally they were a promotion for the 16mm film show "Australian Seafari".
One poster was nicely framed for the foyer of Crescent Head Country Club, near Kempsey NSW. The following year the manager asked if any other were for sale. "We get a dozen or more people every day during holiday time asking if they are for sale".
A couple of years later some surfriders were seeing looking at length at the poster. Later staff noted it was missing.
Cresent Head township is off the highway with a single road out of town. Police were alerted and retrieved the photo from the young surfers before it got too far away....no charges made.
