Hello, a friend of mine gave me this poster over 10 years ago. Does anybody know who printed it or sold it back then? Is this an original picture that somebody blew up to poster size?

I have an original that is around 12' x 18" printed on very heavy card stock.
It must have been a dealer poster. I got mine from Randy @ Oldbug.com a few years back.

I have one too but I don't know the original source.

I figured it was blown up from an owner's manual or shop manual or other original VW drawing photo as it looks like one of those.

Does anyone have a bit higher resolution copy? I want to "convert" it to vector graphic.

Appears to be two different scans...or atleast one was altered prior to printing...the white one (first one) has the fuse block on the speedo pod and the blue one (Everetts) has the fuse block under the pod.

Good catch.
Possibly from an earlier owner's manual (or poster) then...

I just grabbed the first one I went to throw up an example.

1953 version

Although the white scan still appears earlier with the single rear reflector. Also the mirror arm and emergency break handle 1951-52

I would be interested in one. I remember these were selling in the 80's as well but I'm not really sure who was selling them. I remember the late Steve Wood was selling some limited numbered Barndoor posters, so Perhaps he also had the above poster......

I'll be selling the version that I have. They will be 3' wide x 2' tall. I'm trying to decide on the thickness of paper to use. 20 pound paper is cheap... 90 pound paper is 6x more $. They will be laser printed.
