I was looking for it today and it's gone, the only thing there now is a place selling 3D pictures/posters and frames.

DeadlyTwig

No it was just posters as far as I can remember!!

Awh they had such a huuuuuge selection of posters. What is the new place like?

Anywhere you guys know of that sells posters, not just the hmv style stalls!

Apologies, I had a closer look today and they have normal posters, they just had all the 3D stuff on the outside so I thought that's all they had.

They have an ok selection but the guy said he can get in anything you want, they're €5 each or two for €8.

What sort of posters are you looking for?

I would know of a place, which sells retro film and concert posters

Speaking of posters; anyone know what happens the ones they use on bus shelters after the ad campaign is finished? There's been a couple of class Lynx ones and the Hunky Dorys ones that I wouldn't mind nabbing to decorate the house.

Mr Simpson

ClearChannel/Adshel are the company who do the advertising on Bus Shelters, contact them and ask.

Here's their contact details

Looking for two specific ones really as presents: the tree of life and the poster taken after world war 2 in times square with the sailor kissing the nurse

I remember our old video rental shop used to leave all the huge movie posters on a table for you to take. They were amazing!

You could try one of the Sunday markets on Newmarket Square, especially the Flea Market, which is on every last Sunday of the month. There's at least one guy selling loads of posters

DeadlyTwig

Ah perfect! I've heard a few people talking about that flea market in general. It seems pretty popular.

I'm ashamed to say I will have to google map it but I'll definitely check it out
