I had it over my bed then I'd sleep at the foot of my bed so he was the first thing I saw in the morning and the last thing I saw at night from the time I was 13 til I turned 18.

No wonder I'm so hooked!! razz

Oh my - haven't seen that in over 20 years. I was about 12 or 13 when that poster came out - I was always fixated on the pubic hair. He was so hot in that picture!

That poster has been hanging (framed) not in my bedroom, but in my bathroom(s) for years! Most people don't even pay attention to it anymore. It just seemed like the appropriate place since that's where MY shower is. smile

It wasn't over my bed ( eek ) - but it was on my walls as a kid. Between that and the Lovesexy tourbook poster, I'm not sure what my parents though. lol

wave yes, I'll admit it... d some guy stole it from my house at one of my brother's parties...sad (never did get it back)

It also spawned an idea..lmao... the idea was to make sheets, seriously. The bottom sheet would have prince or whomever imprinted on it face up... the top sheet would be imprinted..lol face down so as.... well ya'll get the idea... lmao.

anyhoo... still could be a good seller although I would no longer want anything like that.

I never was a poster person but if I were, I wouldn't have any problem putting the poster on the wall. I like posters and memorabilia but I don't put them on the wall, I keep them in scrapbooks. For walls and displaying, I like something that looks more expensive, personal, and original like a painting of an artist. I'd love to have the Andy Warhol painting of Prince.
Andy is a four letter word.
