Looking for photos of Golden Age gyms

[The Survivor]

I'm redoing some pics in my gym and need some pics I can buy of orginal Golds or Vinces from back in the day or where ever, black and white is fine. Anyone know of any web sites that may have these?

Not per se, went to Ebay and found some vendors that have the older BB's on them. Most are black and white which is fine. Not very many shots of gyms from days gone by though....

Look at photos from the movie Pumping Iron. Most was shot at Golds Venice.

I guess I'm a low tech guy in a hi tech world but how would you capture a frame from Pumpin Iron and print it and have it turn out decent?

You should be able to take your still frame to Staples or Office Max and they can print out large poster size images and then you can take it and get it framed. The problem you might run into though is the movie is old and you will have to save it as high a resolution as possible as the movie itself is already grainy looking, but i think its very very possible and actually a great idea doing it this way

I think you should be able to save the still frame to a disc or a thumb drive and then take that to the Office stores I mentioned above

The pic u have above would be great, just save that image to your hard drive and then to your thumb drive or a disc and voila ur good to go

I actually have the very first one w/arnold doing str bar curls and right next to it I have the lines of Pumpin Iron next to it about going into the pain zone and not afraid of puking or passing out.

Thanks a lot, they are very helpful and will get these printed out. I dont know if anyone here ever saw the old Golds Gym one where there are about 50 people outside of Golds in Venice, w/the Mentzers, Lou, Stallone, Drasin etc. I have that one hanging up and my members are always asking me where I am in it !

For some reason this is one of my favs of Arnold of all times..

I am just amazed at how much they trained barefoot back then. I wouldn't be caught dead walking around my gym barefoot
