Circus people? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

DtrainmasterOGR Forum Member

I'm not a circus enthusiast myself, but if anyone is modeling one, or would just like posters around their O-gauge town announcing a coming circus, the post office has a new sheet of stamps with just that - billboard posters.

Vintage Circus Posters

The graphics are decent, and they come in different sizes. The "USA Forever" is small along the edge, and at arms length it is overwhelmed by the artwork on most. With creative usage it could disappear.

Plus, the ones you don't use on the layout go to a good cause - keeping snail-mail alive.

Good idea if you just want to support the USPS......but downloading vintage posters from the net, making them the exact size you want and printing them may be cheaper and get you the era you want better.
