Ask HN: What posters do you have hanging in your office/room?
8 points by hvass on Sept 8, 2013 | hide | past | favorite | 9 comments
I am looking for some great posters to put in the office or just at home. I am referring to something similar to Facebook's 'Move fast and break things'.

Anything startup relevant would be great. If somebody has done something custom, please do share, I know Dwolla has really cool ones done.

Personally, I have Joey Roth's Hustler poster above my desk - http://joeyroth.com/poster2/



We have a few prints by Scott Hansen (of iso50.com & Tyco), an old Esso sign, and the cover of SICP under the glass of the workbench.

I also built a screenprint station in hopes of making a few more prints. Motivation comes from all the broken/failed prototypes laying about, not so much by witty sayings on paper.

Directly in front of me from the 1970s is a 3x5' Spock ASCII art poster - here's a pic of one - http://sturgeon.css.psu.edu/~mloewen/Oldtech/ASCII/Spock.jpg

I got a wide column terminal printer in storage, one day I may get it going and print out some others.

Other than that some old movie reproduction posters (Forbidden Planet, Flash Gordon), a few abacuses, some old posters of events I had put on, and other classic computing ephemera.


I have an extract from the 57 startup lessons blog post ( http://www.defmacro.org/2013/07/23/startup-lessons.html ) on my wall: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0wl0f67y8rsq3af/StartupLessons.pdf


I created a couple posters for my own home office and are selling them online (currently aimed at the swedish market) You can check them out at http://www.officesugar.com/

If you're interested in any of them I could probably have them shipped to you since my printing partner are located in the states. E-mail in profile..


I commissioned an artist on etsy to paint this on 3 canvasses:
