So (shamelessly nicking the idea suggested from the amazing pics thread) what were your favourite posters you had when you were say 14/15?

Me being an old git, I had:

1. Jimi Hendrix
2. Triumph T160V Trident
3. Aston DB6
4. Bugatti T35
5. That bird on the tennis court scratching her arse

None. I spent 99% of my childhood outside playing sport. Never really got the 'poster' thing.

I blagged posters off various manufacturers. The White Horse whiskey poster was too big so put it up on the common room wall at school. It was a full sized billboard poster - 2 pissed guys on a punt with a white horse on the bank.

The photographer who took the "bird scratching her arse on the tennis court" was on the tele' last night telling the story behind what was the most successfull poster of all time, apparently it's being re released in the original format specifically aimed at blokes in their late 30's & 40's getting nostalgic, I can see that my current garage wall art will increase to include, Steve McQueen jumping the fence in the great escape & bird scratching arse on tennis court.
