excellent question.
I don't have any yet, but considering turning one wall of my office to a movie/TV series wall.

Ibe had a few sites but I was looking for some others. I still regres selling my orginal Goonies and Back to the Future posters. I have a bunch of Star Wars that I love. I am currently trying to vet a seller that has a Last of the Mohicans with 12 autos but it is only $90. So far he looks good but the. Again many years ago someone wanted to sell me a Crow poster auto'd by Brandon Lee

I used to collect posters and lobby cards, but eventually gravitated away, due to the expense. In the 1990s, there used to be a movie memorabilia show annually in Houston, and there was the "Big D Collectors Show" in Dallas. Grabbed dozens of lobby cards each time I went, from early Gene Autry films to old silents and early talkies like "No No Nanette." Didn't purchase many one-sheets, as I didn't have much wall space to display them, but got a few, like one to the Jungle Jim movie "Jungle Moon Men" (1955).
Never bought any autographs, as they didn't interest me. But the above two Texas shows usually brought in a few guest celebrities to sign autographs, like Dale Robertson, Debra Paget, Jonathan Harris, Gail Davis, and such. Occasionally I'd get some signed photos this way, as it gave one an opportunity to visit with them and ask questions.

I'm not looking for originals, just that I have one last wall of my office that needs a theme.
Wall 1: LSU baseball Championship Posters and a canvas piece that has Skip's famous saying
Wall 2: LSU football Championship posters with a canvas piece that has Dan Borne's "It's Saturday Night in Death Valley" poem
Wall 3: TV, mid-80's era satellite photo pf my home town, a canvas piece of my hometown's water tower
Wall 4: ? ? ?
Was thinking about movies and TV Series posters. maybe have a specific underlying theme to them.

I am also into old maps. I bought two while on separate trips to London that I love. One was a pocket map that people carried around during the 1880s. It is fully colorized and had a lot of ads for businesses at the time. I had it unfolded and framed which cost more than the map itself but it is a great piece. The other one is a map published in London during the 1860s showing the division of states during the civil war. I liked it because it had Las Vegas and Houma on there

I grew up in Montegut.
sometime in 80's (guessing around '84-ish) my grandfather was given 36" x 36" satellite photo of Montegut that hung on the wall in his house from then until after Hurricane Ida when his house was condemned
now it's mine and is hanging in my office as a reminder of where I came from (both geographically and as a person).
