Rare Apple Special Event Flint Center iMac DV Launch Poster

On October 5th, 1999, Steve Jobs held a special event at the Flint Center for the Performing Arts in Cupertino, California where he introduced iMovie - and made one live. Apple was launching a new series of the iMac family with a semi transparent enclosure so the inside is visible, a feature that Jobs demonstrated by moving his hand behind it during the presentation. The new iMacs were the the iMac DV ("digital video") and iMac DV Special Edition with a larger hard drive and more ram. This is a very rare collectable poster as there are other versions of the Think Different "Cool" graphite iMac poster but this is the only one to announce the launch date at the Flint Center.

Very few of these were made as the iMac DV launch poster was for a one night local event and it was not distributed to dealers like most Apple posters. It measures approximately 24 by 36 inches and is in perfect condition. It is priced at $225 plus insured mailing in a heavy cardboard tube at cost of postage. There are other Think Different posters available, click the labels below. To inquire contact Dave via kootenaymac.tel

Frank Kozik "Publish or Perish" 1996 Power Computing Seybold poster

"You can take my Mac when you pry my cold dead fingers off the mouse!"
This poster is a very rare and collectible silk screened original print by the famous rock poster artist Frank Kozik. He did a series of prints for the Power Computing company that were part of their guerrilla marketing campaign to "fight back for the Mac" in 1996 and 1997.

The original owner had this to say about the poster: "As you can see this is the one with the girl and the gun and an American flag uttering the greatest line in Mac history! I picked up this one at the P-C booth at the show, it was a very cool and defiant giveaway from the "darkest days" of Apple, some say these were the spark that brought them back from the brink."
