Did anyone have this poster in the nineties?

Hello all,

I’m searching for a poster I had in my student bedroom in the early nineties. It was a landscape of a fantasy like world looking towards a hill. I don’t think there were any figures but it has a King Arthur type vibe. I’ve done an image search but can’t find it anywhere. My daughter’s off in a few weeks to uni and it set me down memory lane. Anyone remember it?

Sorry my 90s wall was occupied by framed Magic Eye prints and a Leonardo Dicaprio collage

Dewberry. And then Top Girl.

Dewberry was too sweet for me, although not as bad as Fuzzy Peach.
I was soooo sophisticated you see!

I thought this was going to be about a topless mechanic 😂

Same. I was wondering if I could get that poster for my bedroom and pass it off as vintage chic.

ChatGPT found it, I was curious if it was good enough to have a go with such little information to go on and it seemed like the most fitting of the ones it returned. It’s Rodney Matthews I think?

Loved my Passat girl poster in 1991.

I don't even want to think about how old that baby would be now.
Or the fella, come to that.

I had this poster! Then I read an article in Just 17 or somewhere about how he’d slept with over 1,000 women. I was really disgusted and took the poster down.

(I hope I didn’t get that wrong. Off to google now.)

Thanks everyone. I loved choosing posters I seem to remember I got that one just before I headed off to uni and I felt so grown up.

I think it was the mechanic with the tyres that had the vest on.

In a 2004 British television documentary about L'Enfant, The Model, the Poster and 3,000 Women, Perry claimed that as a result of his poster fame he had slept with 3,000 women. The programme also identified the baby as Greek-Cypriot Stelios Havatzios. Stelios currently lives in Limassol, Cyprus with his family and works as a lawyer.[1] Perry, who was paid £100 for the photo shoot, worked as a London-based carpenter in 2007.[1] In 2011, the poster became part of the V&A Print collection and can be viewed in the Prints and Drawings Study Room level C. V&A, London and is published on p. 58 British Posters. Advertising, Art and Activism (Flood., C. V&A: 2012)[5]

@Holidaymodeon that looks very familiar!

Sorry for the derail OP but this has made me remember going into Athena and flicking through the stands of posters.

Everything from the latest pop stars to Snoopy or Winnie the Pooh or fantastic art works.

Then into the Body Shop next door for some coconut shampoo and a bottle of White Musk.

Absolutely. I loved the tangerine shower gel and cucumber cleanser.

Didn’t see your post before I wrote mine!

Just had a flashback to my 14th birthday around 1992, pretty much all my birthday cards from my friends featured this man or his buddies in some form!
