No Prince poster on my wall

I would love to see that!

I have Prince posters, the last one 3121, but I do NOT keep them on my wall.

Growing up, my folks had put paneling about 1/2 way up my wall, with a border on it. It was a popular trend at the time. However, thank God it was black and white, and didn't POP in the room like wood grain paneling would. I had wall space above that. I grabbed every Prince posted I could, every MJ poster and wallpapered my wall with Prince/MJ posters. I LOVED it. I had the one of Prince in white in front of a Spanish villa style window holding a red mum or something. I had MJ in jeans, yellow shirt and a leather jacket. I had one of Prince from the 1999 video (it might have been the 7" cover too). I had a Thriller poster or two. I think I had some pull out poster from Right On that was a cartoon of MJ and Mick Jagger.

In more recent years, I've had the Lovesexy poster, the one w/ his cloud guitar from the D&P/ era. Hell, I had a whole Prince room loaded with shit for a long time. But right now.....nothing.

Um none. But Im getting ready to have the Controversy promo (no not the shower one but the one with him and the hohner in front of tabulature or weird gooblygook writing) encased in glass frame and hung up in media room. Come too.

the 1992 album poster

Which one is this? I can't recall it.

I just picked up a Controversy record that had the shower poster in it, in perfect condition. I've never seen the poster IN PERSON, or owned it until now.

I have the Musicology poster framed w/ our ticket stubbs from the concert we went to.

this on but without print writing on it....took me 20 years to re-find it

It's kind of embarrassing how many I have actually.

I have about six 11x17 blow ups of pics from mags that I took to the local copy shop.

I have three official posters--The LoveSexy cover, the one of Prince in the Alphabet Street getup striking a curious pose and of OF COURSE the one of Prince in the shower and "manties".

I also had a poster of him from the Sexy MF video, but my boyfriend took it down and put up an MJ tribute poster in it's place. (Which is odd because my boyfriend worships the ground Prince spits on and only vaugley likes Michael because of me)

I've always wondered about doing this but never got aroud to doing so. How is the quality of the 'blow up"? Ive heard the larger you make the image the worse quality it is overall. Also in the past I got warned that if its copyrighted images already out there, Kinkos could not do it. 10 years later , many shops and even universities have their own image makers and last I spoke to somebody, they had no qualms with bringing in a magazine picture etc and blowing it up.

Don't feel bad about the LoveSexy Poster.

I bought mine from the most RANDOM person. A big burly man who was in the army! Hand to God.

I have a bunch of Prince posters. Here are the two that I have framed and hanging:

As a kid I had loads of posters up, 3 of my favourites were the Lovesexy tourbook cover which I love, the Controversy shower poster and my Sheila E. Romance 1600 one.

I remember having a nice Mayte one too, the angel wings one.

I have about a dozen posters. All except one are gifts from my buddy at the wrecka-stow.

Only one is on the wall in the room where I keep my music along with posters of my other faves... WAR, Sade, Kool and the Gang, etc.

None but I do have the "Controversy" shower poster in a poster frame at the bottom of my closet. The only reason I took it down, is because it looks horrible with all those fold creases where it had been folded up inside the album.

I have a painting of Prince that a local artist did of Prince's face in the dark from the inside sleeve of the "Batman" album. It used to be on my wall also but I've got to get a new hook for the back of the frame.

I don't have any Prince posters, but i just made a 'vision board' with Prince front and center from a post card. The large picture of Prince (on this post of yours skywalker : ) is the one that's on the postcard. There's funky themes like uptown, calhoun square, twin cities, energy, rock n roll hall of fame, dreams, HOT music from Prince, FUNK etc on my vision board.
Funny thing, the day i started this 'vision board,' i heard that Prince had moved back to Minney, When i worked on it next, i read that Prince played around at Paisley Park : )
NOW i'm ready to start another 'vision board' Should flip it and do the other side or start a NEW poster? I wish i was all computer savvy, then i could take a pic so then U could ALL decide.

I have a framed Dirty Mind tour poster with Prince on his knees playing the Hohner with his eyes closed,a black shirt with a chain hanging from his right shoulder & the red handkercheif on his neck.

None now, but back in the day, I had the Purple Rain poster that came in the album, another one of the Lovesexy band, and a Sheila E. promo poster for Yamaha instruments.

I have a Musicology promo poster hanging up that I got from
Webster Hall when I was at the taping of "The Art Of Musicology".
I got a little drunk at the afterparty & took one of the posters
right off of the wall on my way out
I put it up over the poster of Prince on the 94 cover of Vibe.
That one I peeled off of a wall when they were up everywhere in
the city that Summer. They would get soggy after it rained and you could
carefully peel down the poster off of the wall. I ended up with
a few of them. Just laid them out flat to dry and gave some to
some Prince fan friends of mine, kept the best one for me.



this is not the actual pic on the Vibe cover, but it's from this session:

i have a musicology columbia records promo poster on my ceiling above my bed

In the guest room/my office, a Purple Rain poster is tacked up because the wall is solid brick and not worth drilling into as a renter.

Not very original, I know, but my grandma bought it for me as an Easter present, so it's a little sentimental. Also, now that I don't live alone, there's another person's decor tastes to consider.

...I do have the Parade record next to my bed, propped up on the nightstand, if that counts

I have the Sexy MF promo poster with Troy Beyer on her hands and knees. She autographed it for me and then I met the NPG at a record signing and got them all to sign it(minus Levi & Prince). I've had it framed since that day.
