Unsure if this is the correct forum for this thread but if not please feel free to move it to where it should be.

vinyl poster from the first NTRPG Convention - 2009.
BTW: Those big brown things at each corner are brass grommets that came with the poster for easy hanging, by string/rope/nail/tack.....
Not huge tacks.

I purchased the poster linked above from Doug about a month after the 2009 NTRPG Con as soon as I noted it was posted for sale on his RPG Marketplace Website.
I wont say how much I paid, but it was a steal to be honest.
The poster above is the only copy (on vinyl) in existence and it is one of only 3 posters from the 2009 convention that includes the signatures of those who attended the convention as special invited guests.
The other two posters are on fairly thick glossy paper, and those copies include the signatures above plus the signatures for almost every person who attended that first convention.
Mike has one of those glossy posters and I have the other.

I will be adding more fun things soon...  :wink:

I told Doug this at the time, and will continue to tell him forever....he made a HUGE boo-boo putting this up for sale.  He doesn't even have one himself. Particularly at the steal of the price he listed it at. Imagine if this convention goes on 20+ years....and imagine having this artifact from the first one....

That was a great buy, Gnat!!!

Here is the glossy poster (my copy) from the 2009 NTRPG Convention that I mentioned above.
The only signature that I am aware of that is missing is Mikes....
Doug signed it, heck, even I signed this one and it is my copy.
Mike also signed his copy, but not this one....   PDT_Armataz_01_02
I do not recall what his excuse was back then (might not have had one), but he has kindly offered to sign it on more than one occasion since.
Just never got it done.
