Christian Punky Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Silently wonder, what would be the most used pic for flyers over and over again? Metros classic album cover, Garnet Mimms singin in the mic with earphones and Darrell Banks album cover comes to mind.
Davenpete Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 The bad silhouette on the dancer doing a swallow dive, plus all the others of the same ilk. Dx
Barry Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I see an awful lot of bastardised versions of this.
Tsu Tomatoes Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Any Marvin Gaye wearing a hat.... Oh yes, just like the one above!!
Ian Parker Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 The bad silhouette on the dancer doing a swallow dive, plus all the others of the same ilk. Dx the one that always looks like a banana,.,,, awful
Col Wolfe Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 This pic of TT - never get tired of seeing it though! on a broader note, that bloody Laurel Aitken photo used to saturate the flyer market a few years ago.
Len Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I see an awful lot of bastardised versions of this. He he - Classic! 1

Popular Post Len Posted August 7, 2013 Popular Post Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) Ooops!! Don't worry Barry (not my design choice) although all 'fine 'n' dandy' anyway .......In the past, all of my flyers were complete 'one offs'......because I was using Letrasets, and a 'humongous' Blue and 'Hearing Aid Beige' photo copier that needed two people to carry the damn thing! This also left a 'unique' black shadow on each and every one! In fact, I'd like to see more 'retro' flyers about, because all of them nowadays are very professional looking due to improved technology....watch this space.... All the best, Len Edited August 7, 2013 by LEN 4
Andreas B Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 This one seems to get used a lot (I'm guilty of it as well) 1
Len Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 (edited) .....and to demonstrate - See below a 'Letrasetted' flyer from many moons ago, c/w a hand drawn picture!.........God life was harder back then......but I liked it All the best, Len Edited August 8, 2013 by LEN 3
Sooty Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Len sez....."In the past, all of my flyers were complete 'one offs'......because I was using Letrasets, and a 'humongous' Blue and 'Hearing Aid Beige' photo copier that needed two people to carry the damn thing! This also left a 'unique' black shadow on each and every one! " ...from that sentence Len.....we've been there...!hehe!x Cut every pic....scratched every letter and around 8 hours a flyer minimum I reckon!!! I had a kids typewriter to make sentences which I then cut up and put on the flyer! I cheated by going to Staples with my finished 'original' tho'! They look psychedelic too as I used all different colours and things to make the flyer as they were printed black n white so it din;t matter.....but look......20 years later.......have we got some Picasso's on our hands.....??!!!hehe!x The remains....recycled for new flyers init!!x I know Russ Vickers is about still...but....is it strange that the 2 names still on that flyer that are current promoter active??!! Spooky eh?!x ....i got some jazzy letrasets from the Boot Sale circa '95....so things got more 'pro'!! ...but xmas wos an extra effort.......Argos/Freemans/Grattons and Tesco's leaflets..........sorted!!!!x ....never got a present off any of em......bah humbug...!x Computers eh Len?.....takes the human side outta it methinks.....X LUV SOOTY X I used Jackie Wilson shouting the date often....I think it's Jackie...!.......but like Len....all my flyers were 'original'......proud of it too....old school Lenny.....we should book into the same retirement place and get some origami or summink to be happy wiv!!x @@ ~ 3
