The Eric Davis one is sweet. Too bad they don't have badass posters like that anymore.

Boy how have times changed. Could you imagine the controversy that some of those posters would generate now?

China, I was so excited to get that poster (it still hangs in my parents' house) when I was a kid. I thought it was the coolest thing when it became available.

Wasn't shown on there, but my uncle had a George Gervin poster where he was sitting on a throne made of ice in his old room that I used to sleep in in at my grandparents house.

I don't remember that poster, but I thought Dawkins' Chocolate Thunder dunks (where he broke the backboard) happened in the late 70s.

I recall watching a local reporter interviewing Darryl "Chocolate Thunder" Dawkins during his playing days in Philly, he asked Mr. Dawkins, "When is your birthday?" Darryl replied," January 11th." The reporter then asked, "When?" Darryl said, "Every year."

I always wanted a Posse Poster for my Redskins room. I've seen them on E-Bay, but these jokers want $50 or more for and 8 x 10. I want a poster, not a picture.

[USS Redskins]

Wow, the Jim Everett one is really gay.

The Bears one is too and the Mark Gastineau.

Some others here that are pretty funny.
