Yep, I had the same thing. I wish I still had it. I found someone with a copy and paid $50 to have a company scan it (where that pic came from), but they did a really crappy job so the scan has all sort of streaking and color problems.

I could probably do a better job these days with a flat bed scanner and photoshop. I wish you were local, I'd borrow it and get a better scan.

As a kid, I had many posters on my wall, including:
- A National Geographic poster with all of the NASA Apollo mission astronauts standing on the moon.
- A picture of a skier with the Bible verse from Phillipians 3:13-14: "But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
- Reggie Jackson slamming one out of the park.

In college, I had a bunch of posters up including:
- Movie posters - Karate Kid, The Last Starfighter...etc.
- A couple of wall-sized Levi Jeans ads (I used to work for the Gap)
- A bunch of Mordillo Posters including:


-Z-man.

I had a poster of a black Countach, and a few Grateful Dead posters, including one that was a drawing depicting 100 of their song titles. I will see if I can find a picture of it online, it was pretty sweet.

As a side note, I stll have every poster I had up as a kid, and in college in a nice tube in my basement.

Wow! I'd forgotten about the Mordillo soccer poster. That was on the back of my door. All other posters, and there were many, were Star Wars.

Art,
I knew you were a good fella!!!

I had a poster of a TAMA kit I wanted in the worst way. I ended up with my custom built Ludwigs that I still have so it all worked out.

Had a lot of different ones, because my brother's girlfriend was the asst manager of Tower Records in Sacramento, the original one, got a lot of promos.

I worked in a movie theater for a couple of years. so I got a lot of posters and stuff from there, Raging Bull, the Shining, Indiana Jones, Empire Strikes Back, Reds, which I thought sucked, but I got $10 and a six pack of lowenbrau for it.
