Allen,

 

In my opinion your situation is better than most, and it's a credit to both
of yours patience and easy going personalities.(or maybe just the tenderness
sometimes found with newlyweds ;-).  

You two are at least discussing it, negotiate, communicate, etc.  With most
of us it would have never gotten to that stage.  It normally blows up in
disgust and frustration as soon as the first two posters are rejected.

Howdy y'all,

 

Recently, I purchased frames from Sue at Hollywoodposterframes, so I could
achieve a consistent appearance, instead of the mishmash of frames for my
posters. (many thanks, Sue)

 

This has led to an opportunity to display additional posters, which
naturally, has led to unforeseen issues. To wit ... I need to gain approval
for appropriateness thru the missus, 'nuff said.

 

Iconic (and I use the term loosely) posters plainly denied:

 

Night of the Living Dead, (and nearly any monster poster) 

 

Nude on the Moon (and just about any sexploitation poster)

 

An example in particular: After getting 'I Love Trouble' past a cursory
inspection, I receive a rather terse question:

 

"Is that a gun?"

 

To which I replied ... "Well ... yeah, but it is small and you didn't see it
initially ... you think I could get a pass on this one?"

 

Soooo ... everything is flowing smoothly, we are choosing among available
wall space for an ideal location for "I Love Trouble" ... and then ...

 

"Wait a minute ... are those nipples?"

 

Aaaaaahhhh ... married life, we should all be so lucky.

 

P.S. I apologize for not having an image of "I Love Trouble" readily
available, long time collectors and dealers will hopefully visualize the
poster.

 

P.S.S. If anyone would like to view a recent pic of the best looking,
happiest 8 month baby on the planet, please reply, and you'll find that you
can't help but smile.

 

Regards,
