Artistic Pinball Posters Available For Sale (Followup Post)
skbrothers
But I have to make an exception in this case as I think this artist's
photography is outstanding in capturing the spirit of the silver ball.
I do not know Kevin, aside from a back and forth email volley with him
this afternoon. He is the artist who's work was featured in a post
about a day ago regarding pinball photography.
He has Three Posters available in limited quantity for sale. I have
posted them on my webpage for anyone interested to view....

Be sure to scroll through all three of them.
If you like them and wish to purchase them...contact Kevin directly at
ke...@tiell.com
He seems like a nice guy who's helping to perpetuate our hobby through
his lens.
Here's his email response back to me (with pricing information)

"Thanks for emailing me. I'm really happy that you like these images.
If you wouldn't mind posting this to your user group for me, I'd be
happy to share.
This series of images is called, "The Game, Reflected: Photography by
Kevin Tiell".
The fine art prints are a limited edition collection printed on Kodak
Professional Endura Metallic paper. There are only 10 of each image and
are available in two different sizes-16"x20" and
20"x30"-through the Geras Tousignant Gallery in San Francisco.

I hosted a booth at the California Extreme event this past summer in
San Jose. Before the show, I produced 3 different posters-Beat Time,
Joker, and One 9-in a limited edition of 50 each. These are each
embossed and numbered and printed on Kodak Luster Paper in the size
20"x30". I've attached samples to this email. Unlike traditional
posters, printed on an offset press on cheap flimsy paper, my
"posters" are actual photographic prints. For the CAX attendees, I
wanted to be able to offer my work at a lower price point ($25) in
order to make these unique images accessible to people other than fine
art collectors. "One 9" and "Joker" are fundraisers for the
Neptune Beach Amusement Museum in Alameda, California. (www.nbam.org)
Michael Schiess, the owner/collector/artist, permitted me access to his
pinball collection and I'm helping him raise money for his Non-Profit
through the sale of these posters. There are still about 30 of each
available, however the cost to pack and ship them would raise the price
to $50 each.
If anyone is interested in obtaining posters, they can contact me at my
email address-- k...@tiell.com. Thanks so much for all of your
interest. I hope that my images attract more attention to the game and
increase the value of these machines for the collector at large. The
games are a testament to the culture in which they were created and a
functioning history of the world at play. This project has helped me
become a better photographer and I'm excited that it has inspired
more positive energies.
Sincerely,
kevin tiell"
