Hey all, hope everyone is having a good memorial day weekend.

Im starting this topic b/c I am looking to buy something memorable from the 2008 championship to hang either on my living room wall or my bedroom wall in my apartment.  The problem is, I have something in mind, but I cant find it, so Im gonna reach out to you guys and see if you guys have tried to purchase something similar and had any luck.

What Im looking for is an arena picture of the Garden taken during game 6 on the NBA finals.  You know how there are framed overhead arena shots of championship games taken, it has the final score printed on it and all that jazz.  I wanted to get that for our championship last year and I cant find it.

If anyone knows where I can purchase something like this online or knows a place to look that maybe I havent thought of, it would be greatly appreciated.  I will shower the person with Tommy Points if theyre able to find me this.



Im looking for something similar to this, except this is only a 16X20 picture, Im looking for something much bigger, what Im thinking of is usually a wide shot.  I also dont need it to be signed by the team.....that would be awesome for me.....but not for my bank account.

I found this picture, though it's not exactly the same, it gives a overall view of the Garden :



Here is the link.

Unfortunately it's just an 8 by 10 photo, I couldn't find some bigger picture of this particular scene on any other site but maybe somebody else will find it. :)

Edit : hold on, I've got this one too but it seems too small (and it's a different point of view) :

I used to deal in this sort of stuff and might be able to get you on if the guy I did biz with is still business.  They ran in $150 range or so, but were nicely done (no autographs, but some nice logo patches and what not).  The other issue is that shipping them is a bit pricy -  $40-$50 if memory serves.

If you'd like me to look into it, I will.
Yup

I gave both you guys TP's and im gonna come back in an hour to do it again  :)

Redz, I figured a picture along the lines of what Im looking would run me about that much, I would however like to avoid spending the extra 40 on shipping if I could, so I think Im gonna hunt around the DC area a little more and see what I can find.  If I dont have any luck, I'll shoot you a message or something and I'll pay whatever your guy is looking for, if thats cool with you. 


I really like that first picture you posted Drucci, it's not exactly what im looking for but it's still real nice, if I dont end up finding what I want I might settle for something like that.


Thanks a lot for the help guys!
Greg
