I like one of the posters for the movie Dead Presidents. Not so much for the image, as for the caption:

“The only color that counts is green.”

Three of my favorites that I own:

Probably this one: Roger Dean

The Atarians poster is 36" x 24". I used to work at a mailing house and we sent out all kinds of promo stuff; when the ad campaigns were over they let us take whatever stock was left. I got some pretty cool swag besides posters–albums, frisbees, shirts, and stuff like that.

That poster, was, in fact, right next to the Carol Alt poster on my dorm-room wall. :smiley:

26

This one has been over the toilet in the bathroom for the last 30 years or so.

Behind my desk at home is an original printing of this poster.

I’ve also had a positive copy of this etching in my bedroom since college.

27

I had this one:

this one:

and this one that came with the record.

28

The joke is that what the world thinks of as the Gateway Arch is merely one corner of an immense coat hanger buried under the banks of the Mississippi River.

See also these reinterpretations of other famous landmarks.

Very cool, dude; that artwork is fantastic. I’m actually looking online for one now but so far yours is the only picture of one I’ve found or even seen mentioned.

I’ll have to ask Tim at the Pinball Hall of Fame if he’s got one of the machines, too.

The Nick Cave riddle map.

31

I’ve always wanted a huge copy of this:

Haven’t found one yet.

32

Sitting Duck http://www.mbedard.com/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=405

Still cracks me up after years of looking at it.

33

OK, so it is just a whimsical merging of the arch and coat hanger. I was just wondering if there was anything more to it.

34

Would 56"x42" be huge or merely large?

ETA: Heck, even Amazon has a 24"x36" print.

35

This one of James Dean in his Jack Purcell sneakers.

36

The Disney Memorial Orgy poster from the May '67 issue of The Realist.

37

That’ll do, Bo. Thanks!

When does it get here? :wink:

38

We have this UFW poster (from the 70s) in our closet.

I think my favorite is a variation on this Fado poster, which we have hanging in a bedroom.

39

I had this hanging in my dorm room in college.

And I was always a big fan of the Haight-Ashbury psychedelic ballroom posters for bands such as the Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, Big Brother & the Holding Co., etc.

That is intense!

Ditto! I have a whole huge beautiful book that I used to study and crib from when I started doing my own fliers in college. I still have all kinds of stuff (notebooks, clothing, etc.) I decorated with phrases all done in weird balloony letters.
