I had Paul Jones on the ceiling above the bed. I was cheeky to my dad once and he ripped it off!

I wasn't allowed posters.

25Avalon

Beach Boys.

Also Billy Fury. My dad put money on his horse for me, probably The Derby, backed each way. It came in third and I won a couple of quid which was a fortune to me then.

Billy Fury was my first crush.

My sister (8 years older than me) was supposed to put some money on his horse for me but she didn't as she didn't want me to lose any money.

As you say it would only have been a few pounds but worth so much to a very young me. I never forgave her!

I wasn’t allowed posters on my wall, I had a twee framed of birds on a tree
I hated it.
If it had been allowed… David Bowie, David Essex and Twiggy.

Margot Fonteyn, but that was when I was about ten or eleven, so not a teenager really. I don’t think I had any posters in my teens.

Oh Peter Noon he was my first crush at about 8!

I actually thought I would marry him!

Later Mark Bolan, David Cassidy, a poster of a white stallion, various Jackie cut outs.

Yes my David Cassidy poster was from the Jackie magazine but my Biba poster I had to queue up and buy from the boutique Chelsea Girl
