    Blacklight Posters...

    Did you have or still have any Blacklight Posters from the 70's and 80's?

    Third Eye's Marvel posters are a grail of mine. Especially Silver Surfer and Doctor Strange.

    I have a Star Wars one from the 90s, featuring the Rebo Band.

      I had a KISS one when I was a kid but it's sadly gone. And yeah, those Third Eye Marvel ones are awesome. A local shop has a couple of them for sale, but they are among the lesser posters in the series IMO, so I can't convince myself to pay the $400 or so that they are asking for each.

        I WISH I still had my black light KISS poster. I would absolutely eBay it away for some Mego money

          As a kid I have the pinkish Kiss blacklight poster where their heads were in a diamond shape. I had the Third Eye Marvel Cap poster. Those things are high dollar! The Third Eye blacklight cards are fairly reasonable

            Nice, that Cap poster is one of the better ones in the set.

              I still have several, though I have not displayed any of them in decades.

              Lets see
              Grim Reaper on flaming horse
              Iron Maiden Trooper
              A black panther laying on a branch
              and I know I have one other, but cannot remember what it is right now.
              I also have a black-velvet framed piece of a devil sitting on a toilet.

              I still use the blacklight every halloween, and it still has the original fluorescent tube from like 1981/

                I think I had that black panther on a branch poster as a kid. I got it through the sales kit we used to do as a fundraiser at the Catholic elementary school I attended in 4th and 5th grade (circa '77-'79). IT was the only blacklight poster I had as a kid, though my cousin had a bunch and I would beg him to use the black light every time we visited.

                  I got an old Black Panther cat bl poster and got these a few years ago at a yard sale. I was buying an old stereo and saw them on the wall. Got them of $1 a piece. All are dated "72 -"74. They're a little rough but still nice to display

                    Heh, I remember my older cousin had tons of blacklight posters in his bedroom, plus a lot of designs on his walls using blacklight paint (including footprints on the ceiling). I also think he was smoking "the pot".

                        It's funny how as a teen I thought smoking weed was the mark of a degenerate, and now as I near my 40s, it is my primary medication for anxiety and PTSD.

                        It's even funnier that I keep my stash inside an old blowmold Spider Man halloween pail.

                          Sweet set-up. Did you keep anything after you sold off your collection?

                              Nice to finally see its use being normalized (and rightfully legal) here in Canada.
