What is The first time poster?▾
A museum-quality Playbook poster of The first time (1979). It is not a photograph of the game. It is a unique design that walks you through the play with movement, like you'd see on a playbook or a map, and it tells the story of what happened.
What makes this Michigan State poster unique?▾
It is personal. It is nostalgia. It is not another logo on the wall that everyone has already seen. Friends stop, look closer, and say "woah, that's cool" instead of walking past it. They start dissecting the play, telling the story, and asking where you found it. That is the difference: a moment they actually lived, drawn so you can follow it.
What sizes can I get, and can it be framed?▾
Three sizes, all the same 3:4 artwork: 12x16 inches ($29.99 unframed, $69.99 with black frame), 18x24 inches ($39.99 unframed, $89.99 with black frame), and 24x32 inches ($44.99 unframed only). Choose Unframed or Black Frame on the listing. 24x32 inches does not have a matching frame, so that size ships unframed.
What does the black frame look like?▾
A slim black wooden frame (alder / semi-hardwood), about 0.75 inches thick, with a clear Acrylite front (acrylic, not glass) and hanging hardware included. It is lightweight and ready to hang. There is no mat; the print sits in the frame. Available on 12x16 inches and 18x24 inches.
How was this design made? Is it AI?▾
No, it is not an AI-generated image. Our CEO, Alex Sears, and our diagrammer, Dakota, watched these highlights and drew them up as they happened. Each poster is an original Playbook drawing of the actual play, with the story of the moment on the print.
Do you print these posters yourself?▾
We own our own laser-engraving machines and make our Michigan State slate coaster set in-house. For posters, a printing partner prints our design and ships it to you. The artwork is ours; they handle print and delivery.
How is the poster shipped, and how long does it take?▾
Unframed posters ship rolled in a protective poster tube, so they are not folded and are built to avoid bends and breaks in transit. Framed posters ship in a box, assembled and ready to hang. Shipping is calculated at checkout. Unframed U.S. orders usually arrive in about a week; framed takes longer.
What if the poster is damaged or has a printing error?▾
Email us a photo of the issue and we will send a replacement. Hold onto the item until we say otherwise. The photo is enough to start the reprint.
