I was feeling nostalgic so I got on ebay and picked a few up. Dang, I musta had at least 2 full seasons worth when I was a kid... one of my favorite things I looked forward to every week was going into Al's Auto Supply (the one between Olson's & True Value at Silver Lake.) to check for the new poster. Collection got lost/thrown out when my parents moved from the house I grew up in... sure wish I'd taken better care of all that kind of stuff...

Anybody other Photo of the Week fans in here?

I used to have a bunch of them. I tried to get one each week. I ended up losing all them in a storage fire years ago.

no, I've only been to two Hawks games in my life..... and those were played at Husky stadium.. vs. the Eagles and vs. the Raiders.

You didn't have to go to the game, the posters were free at Al's Auto Supply a few days after the game... this was back in 87, 88, 89 though to who knows....

I only have one. Largent making the record setting 128 game catching a pass. It was against San Diego on 10/06/1986.

Back then it was from Pietro's Pizza. Not sure if they even exist anymore. Then Schuck's took over after Pietro's closed here.

Nice! The picture I posted is the record setting 100th TD catch vs Cincy in 1989.

So, all in all there must be about 60 of these things in existence? Seems like a tall order but I might be up for it!

60 or so sounds about right. I had about a dozen or so at one time. But time took toll on them. :( Largent was the only one I framed.

I was still picking them up in the early 90's, like through the '92 season. Haha, it's no wonder they gave up on the after that season.
