Acapulco Poster The Leap by Alecse

Acapulco – The Leap of Faith Poster by Alecse — a collector edition limited to only 20 signed and numbered copies worldwide. Alecse’s masterpiece transcends his iconic travel poster collection, capturing the soul of Acapulco in a striking, minimalist composition that radiates power and emotion.

Against a breathtaking orange backdrop, a lone diver’s silhouette, backlit in the radiant glow of sunset, takes the daring “angel’s leap” off the cliff. This evocative image immortalizes Acapulco’s legendary cliff divers of La Quebrada, whose courage and grace have fascinated the world for decades. With only ten editions remaining worldwide, this unique artwork has become a rare treasure for collectors and design enthusiasts alike.

“Leap of Faith” embodies the adventurous spirit and vibrant essence of Mexico’s Pacific Riviera. Alecse’s refined use of vintage half-tone rendering pays homage to classic travel posters of the 1950s while bringing a bold, modern vibrancy to the scene. Each print amplifies the tension and beauty of the moment; a perfect harmony between danger, freedom, and elegance.

This collector’s edition isn’t just a statement piece; it’s a slice of Acapulco’s soul, meticulously crafted for art lovers and the intrepid. Hand-signed and numbered by Alecse, it stands as both a decorative focal point and a living fragment of Mexico’s timeless allure. Collector editions may also be available as postcards within our curated packs.

FUN FACTS

  • Acapulco’s La Quebrada cliff divers have performed since 1934, leaping from 35 meters into perfectly timed Pacific waves.
  • They became symbols of Mexico’s golden-age tourism, appearing in classic films and vintage travel ads of the 1950s and 60s.
  • “Leap of Faith” captures that fearless moment: a tribute to courage and the joy of risk-taking in pursuit of beauty.

Alecse’s Vintage Style: blurs & grains

Alecse's Original Travel Posters are celebrated for their unique half-tone render, a signature style that plays a crucial role in their appeal and authenticity. This distinctive digital effect is intentionally used to mimic the old poster printing process, where colors were rendered by the juxtaposition of dots of different sizes and colors. This method is a nod to vintage aesthetics, giving each poster a classic, retro look that aficionados of vintage travel and retro posters appreciate.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

Everything You Need to Know

New to MyRetroPoster? Here are the answers to the questions our customers ask most often before ordering their first print.

Are all your posters limited editions?

Our published artworks are issued in limited editions. Standard Editions are limited to 300 prints across all sizes. Selected Collector Editions are released in numbered runs of 20 or 50. The edition limit for each artwork is shown on its product page.

What paper do you use?

Our standard posters are printed using 12 colour giclée technology on 200 gsm Enhanced Matte Art Paper, with a smooth, matte finish. Product specifications may vary for special formats or finishes.

How long do your prints last?

We use professional pigment inks and fine art materials designed for excellent longevity. Actual lifespan depends on light exposure, framing, humidity and display conditions, so no fixed lifespan is guaranteed.

Are frames included in the poster price?

No. Frames are optional extras. You can select the frame type directly on the product page or add it later from the Framing Options section.

Where are MyRetroposter™ prints produced?

Our professional production partners operate in the UK, USA, European Union, Canada and Australia. The production location depends on your destination, format and availability.

How long will my order take to arrive?

Average delivery is 3 to 7 business days in most regions (Europe, USA, UK, Canada, Australia) and 5 to 12 days for Asia, South America, and the UAE.

Do I have to pay customs or taxes?

Customs duties or local import taxes may apply depending on your country’s regulations. MyRetroPoster™ cannot control, predict, or be held liable for these additional costs.

What if my package is damaged or lost?

If your order arrives damaged, contact us within 7 days with your order number and photos of the artwork and packaging. For a parcel that appears lost, contact us so we can investigate with the carrier. Verified damage or confirmed loss is handled under our Shipping Policy and Refund Policy, without limiting your statutory rights.

Can I return a poster if I change my mind?

Every MyRetroPoster print is produced specifically for your order, in the size and configuration you select. Under our current made to order sales policy, standard posters are not eligible for return or exchange simply because you have changed your mind once production has started. Please consult our Refund Policy for full details.
