That would be awesome.

Coming from someone who has made posters and used Kinkos for other things, nothing at Kinkos is "reasonable".
Go to a real printing shop... but you will have to do a run of each, not 1/2/5 sets.

If there is anyone in the world that has a full set, I would be impressed.
I bet there are at least 40-50 posters, probably more.
It would not surprise me if someone in Germany (Grundmanns?) or Europe has a complete or near complete set though.

I have 20 of them including the Lubrication poster. It came from a regular here on the Samba and was part of a trade and not a sale for $500.

Mine are all 1951/52 Bus and 53-56 Beetle.

I also have Porsche 356 Technicals.

Anyways, Ive never heard that people wanted them reproduced, thus I linen backed and framed most of mine. It would be possible for me remove them from the frames and copy them but it will be costly.

I have 2 1951 Bus ones (wiring diagram technical and carburator techinical) that are yet to be framed because it costs a bunch and I dont have any wall space for them. I will post pictures of them this coming weekend. If anyone wants a copy, I will try to help.

Even my office at work has no wall space anymore!

I bought this poster from a VW dealership here in Canada that was closing down about 20 years ago. The owner said he remembered it hanging on the wall in 1956 when he first started working there as a mechanic. I'd love to have it restored one day. And no, it's not for sale.

VW's record of copyright infringement lawsuits seem to contraindicate reproducing these as being a good idea...

I think that company could make a bundle just selling stuff like this and some of their classic ad art. Too bad they are too busy making Eurovans.....

I recently picked up a lot of 19 original training posters from Eyerly Volkswagen in Salem, OR. There's a mix of Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3. Apart from the Barndoor wiring diagram that has some metallic spray paint on the back, they are all in pretty good condition. Can't wait to frame the 1500 posters for my office.

Nice score!

Thanks! Super stoked to add these to the collection. I've been going pretty hard on posters the last few years. I do not have enough wall space...some of these will probably end up at ISP with my Notchback cutaway and some other training posters I have there already:

A0 Notchback cutaway:

This is awesome, congrats! I found this poster a few months ago and have been itching to get it framed.

They are very rare. I also have the 1500 S version from 1964 below:
