Title: Finally showing (some of) my collection on IG
Post by: wonka on April 01, 2020, 01:20:08 PM: With all this time at home, been motivated to share my collection on Istagram in case anyone is interested.

I am digging the photo sessions, especially some close up shots of old printing details and the like...my wife is more excited about me doing this for insurance purposes, lol.

Anyway, here is the handle: mypostercollection

Hope to see you guys on there...

THANK YOU for posting them.

CHEERS!

Post by: eatbrie on April 01, 2020, 04:47:40 PM: Interesting. I'll have to check it out. See how you do it.

I've been debating whether or not to share my collection site on Instagram/FB. Most of my friends do not know I collect posters. I was always afraid to scare them away and I've been very good at keeping both words separate. Since I have nothing up on my walls, many people who came over for dinner parties were and are still unaware. I don't talk about posters either. Maybe they would enjoy it now.

Still debating.

T, you probably don't even need to do one on IG, since you already have a comprehensive site. Yours is more of a hard core chronicle of your collection for you (and others to view). Mine is a fleeting thing, a poster or two a day kind of a deal...and I hear you on the not freaking friends out...that is why I made this account anonymous, because I would rather just talk posters with poster people, and I rarely use my personal account anymore anyway.

The less personal social media is, the more I enjoy it.

IG has made it impossible to scroll down a person's feed too much before having to log in, but thankfully we aren't there yet with mine, haha.

Post by: Antoine1973 on April 02, 2020, 12:51:57 PM: You're off to a good start! I've been musing about doing the same and creating an IG account strictly to showcase my posters. Maybe I'll get around to do so now...

Ha, I love that poster. Picked that UK version up from Bruce forever ago feels like. Best part about doing this is finding tubes and boxes of stuff I haven't thought about in years.
