I always thought that one looked very Star Trekkie it looks like they aliens on Jupiter or something.

My favorite which I had in my room as a child was from the Purple rain era. He had on white and I believe he was holding a rose. Also, One from the Parade era where he's in that gold paisley outfit with sun glasses and I think Wendy and Lisa are sitting next to him. He also looks good in that pic when he's with Mayte. I refer to it as his Moses look I think he's wearing a black suit and she has on a pink dress and he has his arm around her waist.

Great. This one is one of my favorites too.

dig that, I had it in my bedroom as a teenager in black and white

My baby is a billboard poster advertising the Dortumnd Lovesexy show that was televised, + a couple of early 80's ones from back 'n' tha day.

Think one of the things I've regreted the most over the years is giving away my original Quad poster for the theatrical release of Purple Rain - that was a beauty, and I've kicked myself ever since (If I'd kept but half of the stuff I gave away in the mid eighties.... jeez...)

You know what-I just obtained that poster. My work is doing a auction for hurricane Katrina. And they were sifting through a bunch of stuff to auction, they found that poster and gave it to me. It's a little beat up, but awesome.

nn

p.s. I work at Amoeba SF

I love this one



...one day it will be mine!

sorry for the size but I wanted everybody to get the full effect

This one right here...




has always and will always be my favorite!!

BananaCologne said:

thats not giving them "the full effect"!
too little

thekidsgirl said:

Yeah... well, if you click the thumbnail, somewhat ironically you will find EXACTLY the same photo - same size, same artifacts on the pic, everything. Sometimes it just pays to use what ya have available right under yer nose...y'know?

The Controversy shower poster, and the Lovesexy tour program cover one are my personal fav's.

BananaCologne said:

but posting the big pic forces everybody to enjoy "the full effect"


...you must hate me sorry

These should be posters. Don't know why I haven't seen them. Why doesn't he merchandise that much?

doctamario said:

Not sure about the others, but the 1999 Day/Night Windows one is a poster, I have it

I think at least the Lovesexy era, glasses one is too. Uptown had a great posterography in one issue (actually I think they had two, a later issue was an additional update to the original).

SexyBeautifulOne said:

Damn. This was the one that changed my life. I still have it folded up somewhere with purple 45's

BestMusic4meandU said:

This is my favorite also...I always thought it had the look of being shot somewhere in the southwest, with mountains in the background. Imagine my surprise when I found out it was shot outside of PP and that is just a mound of dirt behind them. Cool outfits though.

my vote's for the poster with the picture that's on this pass (i have this promo poster, but i don't have a digital camera so i can't take a picture of it):



also, i'd like to nominate this little beauty as well (yes, that's the side of my refrigerator):



...even though he looked dorky as fuck in that picture, it's just so '70s that you can't really diss it.


ANYTHING BUT THAT FUCKING SHOWER POSTER.
