I'm not sure where to put this, please move to the correct forum if needed :)

Here's something interesting for you Nikonians since today is the longest day of the year (Thom Hogan thinks we'll see DSLRs tomorrow). Anyway, this is a display mat from a camera store. Looks like it was from the F3 generation. It's been sitting in the house for... a long time :D

I love stuff like this. It even says Nippon Kogaku K.K. (That company changed its name to Nikon Inc. in 1988). Look in the upper left box on the back. It has the Nikon logo, then Nippon Kogaku K.K. under it.

I can't find anything about it on the internet. Not on ebay either.

    I've got one of the Canon 'One step closer to the dream' posters on the wall.
    Covers approx 150 models between the 1934 Kwanon prototype to 1995 Prima BF Twin.

    Think I'd need a bigger wall if it was updated :)

    @Seymore: It's in very good condition... a few white spots on it, but overall very good. The corners aren't beat up at all; they're in great condition.

    @pp: That is so cool!
