    Fencing prints/posters

    Does anyone know where I can puchase posters, or prints of fencing? And I mean modern fencing, all the online stuff id like from the 1800's.

    Try the major suppliers. I believe TCA and AFS both have a few posters, but rather limited.

    Well, there's always e-bay. I bought a few nice prints from there and they were good quality and if you are patient you can get a good deal sometimes. I've noticed that most e-bayers that shop for fencing related items are pretty savvy and discriminating. If a deal looks too good to be true it probably is (like the $5 wired foil blades I bought.... they were 34" instead of 35"...)
    The framing of couse was 6 times the price of the prints but they look good in my office.
    Good Luck!

    American fencing supply has three real nice ones put out by Negrini. Of Italian fencers of course winning at the Sydney Olympics. BT has one small sabre poster and said they were going to try and get some of the ones of Hungarian fencers that they use for advertising and sell them but that was still up in the air.

    I've attempted to go through some of the professional photo suppliers to see about using some action shots of worlds and olympics for posters or a calendar, but the per-picture price was way too high for me to sink the money in for an attempt.

    Allsport (now Getty Images) has some really great shots though.
