I bought Dave three posters for Christmas. This past Christmas. And yes, I realize Christmas was well over a month ago. It's just that I finally got them framed. Yeah for him! I suppose buying Dave posters means I bought myself posters as well, since I'm obviously looking at them everyday too. So yeah for me!
I've wanted an Ork San Francisco poster for a few years now. I meant to buy one, but being in the UK meant shipping was expensive or even non-existent (unless we used the USPS - US Penny Service - aka my mom named Penny who mails us stuff. Hee hee). Since we were going home for Christmas I realized I had my opportunity to buy it, and be able to ship it to my parents, and be able to bring it back to London with us. And then I excitedly discovered that Ork came out with a London version this past December, so I bought that too.
I also found prints of metro/subway systems from a few different cities, SF and London included. Dave is a subway geek so I thought he'd like that. Since SF has such a relatively small BART system the graphic was sort of paltry looking compared to London, so I bought London only. What's unique about the subway map is that all the stations are spelled out along the lines.
Here are some other ideas I've spotted, mostly to do with San Francisco, but I've also thrown in one Wheaten for good measure:
Perhaps those are for future Christmases?
