Not a great image captured from the web, but I have this A2 print hanging on the wall to remind us of the great day we had when the Tour Of Britain last came to Bristol

Hmmm, don’t know the film but love the poster. Generally like ol’ Rutger as an actor, I’ll check that out :slightly_smiling_face:

The Coltrane Circle :exploding_head:

It’s a beautifully understated film (great Joseph Roth book as well) but a million miles from his other stuff - it’s his best performance for me. Anthony Quayle’s last film as well.

Someone had to do it . . .

Tom Jung - 1977

Greg Hildebrandt - 1977

Hildebrant’s image was used for newspaper ads and retail sale.

Heavy Metal magazine. Sometimes wish I kept mine, had a fair chunk of them at one time. Some crazy art and stories.

The covers weren’t entirely indicative of the contents (Taarna is one of the most famous stories, however). But they knew their target audience (young nerdy guys) :wink:

I had a collection of Heavy Metal mags too. Along with Hustler, they were reflective of my yoot.
