Growing up in the 70's which was partly the era of the disaster film genre aka towering inferno / Earthquake / Poseidon adventure / Airport, my first poster was an Australian Daybill of Airport 75 which I got from a county theatre as a 12 year old whilst on holiday with my parents. I do not have that particular poster any more but rather a British quad the film.
