Posters Page

Originals
We have a limited number of original posters that were produced by Peter himself. He carefully supervised the printing of his own posters, paying particular attention to the quality of the line in his black and white posters and to the quality of the color in his full-color posters. These "Peter Aschwanden Originals" include the 4 black and white classics: The Exploded Beetle, The Exploded Rabbit, The German City and The Cutaway City. These are large posters (See the Original Classics Page for exact sizes as they vary somewhat.) and are offered at $40 each except for The Cutaway City which is offered at $50 because of the very limited number that remain.

Peter also produced The Birth of Billy the Kid after Boticelli's Venus. (Instead of rising from the half shell, Billy rises from a cigar box.) This wonderful full-color poster is a reproduction of one of Peter's paintings from his Billy the Kid Series. It comes with a handy guide to the cast of characters from the Lincoln County War. This poster is 28" x 21" and is also $40.

Reprints
We have reprinted all four classic posters plus Tularemia, Transaxel Dream and The Engine (Rabbit engine with labels). These black and white reprints are smaller at 12" x 18" and are $10 each.

Reprints of the 3 maps from the Route 66 Series are in full color. Bernalillo, Los Lunas and Moriarty were originally designed for Route 66 promotional brochures and were created as paintings. Although each is beautiful by itself, they look wonderful framed together. They are reprinted at 9" x 18" and are $15 each or 3 for $40.

Finally, we offer Peter's gorgeous Map of Old Santa Fe which was also created as a painting. It is large at 24" x 36" and richly illustrated with a border of vignettes of Santa Fe life painted in Peter's whimsical style. $20.
