This place has a lot of very cool vintage bike posters and they are available in various sizes. They also have some great motor racing ones as well.

I just got the middle one, with Merckx and Tullio, from a local guy, Howie Cohen, signed by Eddy..still looking for a Campag one signed by Tullio...been looking for a long time.....

The Eddy/Tullio one is hanging in my shop with about 20 others, Some original, some repros. Many Merckx and other signed(Indurain, Moser, Hampsten(he came in with his new baby boy last week), Phinney, Keifel, Duggan, Gragus, some tri guys, Dave Scott, Mark Allen....even a lance one in the corner).

The Eddie poster is one of my favorites; perhaps one day...

Anyway, here is mine, actually my son's. Now, if only the Badger would wander into my neck of the woods and sign it:

The Milwaukee Art Museum is running a special exhibit on the Posters of Paris in the late 19th century, many of which we recognize as vintage bike posters. If you're close I'd reccomend the admission price.
