Has this been done? If not then it's time to round up the top 10 posters to grace our collective walls. If it has been done, sorry, just let this thread die in peace.

I'll start with three that I had.

1. Best image I could find. I can't even remember how many times I drew this car from this poster growing up.

2. Porsche 930 poster. So much childhood want. That type is still burned into my brain.

3. I liked bikes too. Still do. This one is the best bike / car poster ever, and probably caused me to put a rack on my Porsche when I grew up. It's the top image.

What 'chu got? My brothers were into Lambos and F40s, but I'll let other people fill in those slots. Same with Vector...

my wall as a kid

then I got a subscription to air and space and smithsonian magazines, and then literally EVERY inch of my wall was covered with various cutouts.

I remember that one... But why didn't they make the garage 3 feet deeper.

I had one of an OPP Mustang. I can't seem to find a version of it online, though...

While others were ordering books I was ordering car posters. I turned out OK.

Can't seem to find a picture of the actual poster but it's basically the image of the F50 on this box, without the cropping. I think my poorly built models from that set are still around too, somewhere.

It wasn't a poster but was the first thing on my wall by me at 14. Did all four by age 20.

I think its probably still on the wall of my childhood home.
