    Default Pachinko Pile Pics

    Well one day I was searching through google and this one picture really caught my eye. So I went to the site and checked it out. http://cargocollective.com/landland/...hinko-Machines It is a really cool print. I love how it has the whole range of machines from the 40's to the late 70's. So I ended up buying one.

    It took quite a while to get here. I ordered it on the 29 of march and it got here yesterday. I was starting to second guess myself for buying something sorta expensive from an unknown site. But it finally came. I guess that they actually have to go and print off the copies to your order. Because they sent it priority mail which only took 2 days. (at least that is what the tag on the tube said) Anyways I'm glad it is here and I absolutely love it. Next thing to do is go buy a frame for it. (saw a real nice one at Ikea that will fit it.)

    Also I guess because it took them so long or they just messed up my order I also go a second print that I didn't even order. http://cargocollective.com/landland/...metery-Benefit

    Truthfully I don't care much for it; but hey it is free so I mine as well take it.

    Also I think I was able to tell the brand on most the machines. (labeled in picture attached)

    I like this print so much I think I may contact the artist and see if I can use it for a background on a machine.

    Oh forgot to mention even though their site shows very few of them left there are actually a lot left. Mine is #29 out of 65. So there is about another 35 left.

    I'm sure it was a mistake when the title of the thread got changed from print to pics.

    I may have to see about printing up one of those for myself, I've got a HP Designjet 3500CP 54" inkjet finally working

    Well today I took my print to go and be custom framed. So over $200 later. I'll see what I get. I have worked with the framer before and they do great quality work.

    I'll post some pictures once I get it back. (be about 2 weeks or so)

    Well I just got my print back from the framer. I am very pleased with how it came out. It looks even better in person.

    Here are some pictures of it.

    003.jpg006.jpg

    Sorry the lighting is really bad. Though this thing looks great. The top mat (widest one) is a sage green that is almost exactly the same color as the green at the base of the print. Then the next one is an orange that is also an almost exact match to the orange in the print. And then the black to just make it pop. I chose the thin chrome frame just because it goes with what is in the room. Plus it offsets the colors really well.

    All-in-all I think it was money well spent.
