I never bought it, and lived to regret it:

I've taken a shine to a barbarian girl litho of Frazetta's for about 3K framed, don't know if I'll ever be able to afford it, though! Frazetta is the greatest comic book artist of all time, IMO.

By the way, Richard Avedon shot the Kinski photo. He discusses the shoot here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vvDveuzqRM

Starts about the 2:00 mark.

That actually made me laugh. Like, out loud and everything. I have no explanation for that.

You could play The Zombies' "Imagine the Swan".

A beach made of block paving reaches to a moonlit ocean...it has a surreal air of the creation about it with the naked couple.I don't know what the swan's place is in this though. :o

The guy who shot the tennis chick photo just recently passed:

Also, as a rule, man ass should never appear on any wall.

The tennis poster is a classic.

Saul Bass is the most famous, and the best, movie poster and movie credits designer in the world, I'm tempted to buy reproductions of these three classic posters, plus I own the Japanese original from 1955:

And here is the UK quad:

Image

Year: 1955
Cast: Frank Sinatra, Kim Novak, Eleanor Parker, Arnold Stang, Darren McGavin, Robert Strauss, George Mathews, John Conte, Doro Merande
Directed By: Otto Preminger

from http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_product ... sku=459965

A gripping film version of the Nelson Algren junkie melodrama, about an ex-addict who returns to town only to get mixed up with drugs again. Crooked card dealer Frankie Machine (Sinatra in a standout performance) returns after a stint in rehab, hoping to pursue new dreams. But his crippled wife Zosch (Parker) wants him to stick with what he knows while drug dealer Louie (McGavin) makes Frankie offers he finds harder and harder to refuse, even with blonde beauty Molly (Novak) to offer Frankie comfort. Considered controversial in its depiction of addiction when released.

Foreign movie posters are really cool, too,

Japanese, Polish, French, and Italian posters are really sought after and collectible. As are UK posters in their oblong format, one of the few countries in the world to use that format for movie posters. My favorites are the Japanese photo montage posters from the golden age of Japanese movie posters, '60s and '70s. They also make cool revival posters, the Touch of Evil director's cut poster is amazing and that one is going up on my living room wall.

So far I've got these posters up:

Destiny's Child Survivor album 2001 promo poster
Sex Pistols Jubilee poster
Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers "Why do Fools Fall in Love" poster
Brian Wilson 2002 Pet Sounds Tour.

Also going up:

The Beatles "A Hard Day's Night" Polish reprint
MC5 poster
Japanese "The Man With the Golden arm" poster
Japanese "Bonjour Tristesse" poster
Japanese "Bunny Lake is Missing" poster
Japanese Godfather Parts i, ii, and iii
Japanese "The Unforgiven" poster
