Which posters did you have on your wall in your teens

David Cassidy was my first poster pinup, I used to tape all the songs off the TV when The Partridge Family was on. I hung a microphone over the TV and my whole family had to stay quiet! My brother often didn't oblige.
Then I moved onto Roger Taylor of Queen, the hair, his eyes mmm.

Donny Osmond and David Essex.

I fell out with my dad when he wouldn’t take me to London in the days when the Osmonds were met by huge crowds at Heathrow. It was the time when a wall collapsed so had a lucky escape really. Still like Donny to this day.

Beatles mainly. I had over 1000 pics of them, not all on the wall!. Also some other 60s stars. Billy J Kramer, The Hollies (for Tony Hicks), The Merseybeats, Walker Brothers etc.

I was a huge David Cassidy fan and the Bay City Rollers. They took up most of my wall. I used to tear pages out of the Jackie magazine and stuck them to the wall.

Shazza, Snap! Jackie was the go to magazine for pin up posters. I'm a bit older than you, my pin ups were Peter Frampton, Dave Dee and Justin Hayward. ???

David Cassidy, Marc Bolan and Jackson 5 but DC was the main one for me and I still listen to his music, when Mr. S. is out.

Marc Bolan, Alice Cooper, and sorry, but Gary Glitter.

Not that I was allowed posters in my room.
I had to put them up in the shed!

I had a couple of big Toulouse Lautrec posters and my favourite painting in the world - Breughel's Hunters In The Snow.

You are obviously all much younger than me and teenagers in the sixties whereas I was a teenager in the fifties. I had a full length poster of Elvis in my bedroom; there was a magazine - Valentine - that had parts of the poster each week. I also had posters of Ricky Nelson and The Everly Brothers on my bedroom wall.

Oh Davy Jones all the way. I felt as though I knew him because he came from Manchester.
