My bedroom walls were covered in Rolling Stones pictures from magazines. I had a big one of Brian Jones on my wardrobe door and kissed him every night when I went to bed.

David Cassidy, Brian Connolly from The Sweet, then the Rubettes

My bedroom wall was covered in CND posters. The day after I was married, my father took them all down, and then re=decorated that room. Do wish I had kept those posters.

I don't even know if I would have been allowed to pit posters up, even with blutak, I just would never have dared. My parents were very Victorian in their views.

If I had have had any posters I would have gone for most of the above.

Plus perhaps John Peel.

A friend and I hitchhiked from college in Birmingham down to London to attend that concert! Good times! ?

I had lots of posters from Jackie magazine on my walls but also had a very large poster of Mick Jagger from The Stones in the Park concert . In fact I still have this poster but not on my bedroom wall ?. It’s in my memory box .

Jackie Magazine here too ..... David Cassidy, Mark Bolan, Donny Osmond, The Bay City Rollers, Slade.
I can remember using sewing pins to hang them on the wallpaper!

Marc Bolan - was devastated when he was killed in the car crash.

Me too - loved him

GrandmaRosie Tue 27-Jul-21 21:06:20

I had Marc Bolan and my sister had David Cassidy. For some odd reason I also had Cat Stevens?

Nannashirlz Tue 27-Jul-21 20:11:29

Michael Jackson and madness lol

60s girl here - so for me it was Donovan (Psychedelic/Folk Singer), The Who, Cat Stevens, Cliff Richard and Walker Brothers .............. but none of The Beatles. They were just 'not my thing'!

Jennyluck I'd forgotten about my huge poster of Peter Frampton. Show me the way was a great favourite of mine.

Jennyluck Tue 27-Jul-21 18:44:34

Peter frampton ????

Edith81 Tue 27-Jul-21 18:40:14

Cliff Richard and Rock Hudson.

Smurf52 Tue 27-Jul-21 18:29:07

Terence Stamp, Mike Nesmith (Monkees), Paul and Barry Ryan, David Essex spring to mind.

SueDoku Tue 27-Jul-21 18:25:43

My bedroom wasn't large - but every inch of walls and ceiling was covered with posters and pictures of The Beatles - especially Paul ❤️ ?

Sadgrandma Tue 27-Jul-21 18:22:27

Oh dear am I the only one who loved Cliff Richard - 1 was 13 at the time

Terence Stamp as Troy from Far from the Madding Crowd
Robert Redford as The Sundance Kid

Not allowed posters on the wall when I was a child/teen.

At college I had fashion pages out of Nova magazine. Also copied out favourite quotes from poems, songs etc. Can't remember what else!

Dirk Bogarde, James Dean, Marlon Brando, Anthony Perkins, and.......Yuri Gagarin!!!
