The John Lennon 'white piano" poster from the Imagine album. My dad even put this up in his office for a while (he's a piano teacher). I still have it and the LP.

Which steve martin lp had that cool poster of him making the angry face like a rock star?
I don't think it was "wild and crazy guy" but it may be.
That poster is awesome. Has a yellow background. I never had the original lps. Anyone know?

If so, it was from the 45 picture sleeve, but I believe we had some large P.O.P. displays of this shot. There may have been a smaller version with the LP, but I don't recall it. (and I did process about a thousand opened (returned) copies of all of Steve Martin's albums.) It's also possible that some packages included the poster, and some didn't. All of our supply came from Capitol's Winchester plant, so I can only report about that source.
I do recall his "Best Fishes" photo as an album insert.

The guitar pose was used in the inside gatefold cover of A Wild And Crazy Guy, not a poster.

I'll be damned! That looks like an old Ibanez guitar I had! Sustained for days!

Jeff is correct though, in that the image was on a poster. It just wasn't an album insert poster. I have several copies of it in the attic. Ivy Hill sent us a ton of them. We were their mid-Atlantic P.O.P. dumping ground. :eek:

Wings Over America poster...
I had this on my wall for years in the 70's.
So did I but I think I displayed the flipside.Was the flipside of this poster a historical band lineage chart for each of the members? ...or am I mixing this up with something else?
:tsk: :p
I think we should add in the Jazz poster. It's a Saturday after all. :shh:

It's a shame. They make the rockin world go round.

My college roommate and I had another favorite some of you might remember -- the poster that came with the Kinks' One For The Road album.
Nothing spectacular ... just a stage-eye view of an outdoor audience at a Kinks concert.
But there was this one audience member in particular, sitting on the shoulders of a guy, whose presence was fairly captivating. Any of you guys remember it? I can't find it in google images.
