Description:	This is a reconstruction of a Doom poster seen in a photo of Id's offices. The poster features a red demon face set against a black background, a large version of the image that appeared on the cover of the "Ultimate Doom" box. The poster itself apparently was never commercially available, implying that the poster in the Id photo was a one-off one-of-a-kind print. This is a high quality file suitable for printing as a poster at a print shop. As a result, the file itself is very large. I (fraggle) am uploading this to the idgames archive; Peter Heinemann gave me this file to host several years ago as he needed web hosting for it. His original description of this file is included below.

* Original text file *

Hi,

this is a kind of "reconstruction" of the big demon poster hanging at 
id's headquarter, that - as far as I know - was never for sale. I took the 
demon from the early Ultimate Doom game box (Mac version) and the Doom tag
from the poster that came with the later Ultimate Doom box (also Mac 
version). Some assembling, retouching...

Please do not sell this poster. And don't pirate their games. 'nuff 
said...

Before shopping for a large printout, please ask at the printshop for 
a "trial" print of a smaller area, just for the case that the colours 
need some adjusting. But I guess it will print out fine. It does not 
need to match a "Ferrari red", better look that the "Doom" tag has the 
correct colours, the demon looks frightening in almost every "teint", 
even in green  ^_^

Those large prints are expensive, so better ask for a smaller piece 
before ordering the whole cake  ^_^

The measurements in centimeters (Metrical System Rule The World!):
70,04 x 105 cm
Resolution: 150dpi
RGB Tiff

The measurements in inch:
27,573 x 41,34 inch
Resolution: 150dpi
RGB Tiff

Give the people in the printshop this data, they will prepare the file for 
the print.

Don't safe the file as a jpeg (.jpg). Better leave it like it is.

Made with Adobe Photoshop 4.0 Mac. I love Macs and Doom  ^_^

150dpi is enough for a printout on large format bubblejet/inkjet printer, 
and you will view the print from a wider distance, so there is no need 
for a 2400dpi resolution.

As you can see on the included photo (not taken by me) that shows the 
original poster at id, a red coloured picture frame would make a nice 
addition.

Keep on dooming!

-Peter Heinemann

Two things by the By: If English is not your first language, don't 
attempt to learn English from this "readme" and please - if you still 
live with your parents - tell your mom or your little sister about the 
poster before you hang it in your room ^_^
