Helping my dad move as he's downsizing, these pieces were always on his wall. He actually had more but he threw a few of them out already (without telling me). He's a bit of a car guy too (well, he was...until he got married and had kids, got a divorce, and now drives a 1999 Toyota Corolla with 37x,xxx clicks on it) considering the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
I've considered taking them but I live in a condo with very limited wall space, I may just store them for future use, it'd be a waste to get rid of them.

Keep them. Store them. Some day it will be one of the links to your dad. Trust me. Those old tools my dad had are now precious links to our past.

I've never really been close with my dad (the divorce and smoking (I have health issues now, thanks dad!) did not help of course), but he's getting old so I know I'll always regret when I'm older if I continue to block him out of my life, though I've slowly been opening the door more. I will probably do this. The biggest problem is that they're huge and have glass panels. I gotta be careful and find a good place to store it.

Almost ditto of my relationship with my dad. As time went by, I softened up a bit and came to realize that it was the only family I will ever have. I realized that he is himself as I am myself. But that should not stop me from admiring the better parts of his personality. As I said previous, those tools were something that brought good memories since I learned stuff from watching him use them and we had conversations about the things he was doing with them. Find that place to store them. You will thank yourself in a few years.

Keep them if at all possible. Someday you'll be so glad you did.

Agree you should keep them for the sentimental value and connection with your dad.
One suggestion: if you're worried about the space, you could always take the posters out of the frames, store them in a big tube, and re-frame them later when you have more space. You never know when you'll have a bigger place to accommodate them.
