in the late 70's early 80's there was a poster of a woman slightly lifting her tennis skirt does anyone know the title of that poster or the photographer who took it? Mike

All I can tell you, Ice, is that it was a company called Athena that produced the poster, but it went bankrupt in the mid 90s. If you're interested in its glory days and eventual downfall, click onhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/Archive/Article/0,4273,4
294667,00.html Sorry I can't tell you where to find a copy. The website I put into my original response above, though, did list the address of the photographer, so why not drop him a line? I'm sure he'd be delighted to find people are still interested.

There are still Athena shops around. There's one in The Lakeside shopping Center in Thurrock and one in The Blue Water Shopping Center just outside Dartford. I'm sure there must be others. You could give them a ring, however that doesnt mean they have this poster but may be able to tell you if its still avaliable somewhere. Failing that you could also try and get the picture on a postcard or digital image and have it blown up.

Sorry but I'm sure you've found the answer by now. I was about to post the same question when yours came up. I love that photo. Anyway, if you go onto google - tennis girl poster then go onto BBc News/Magazine/Poster Boy you'll find it. Photographer was Martin Elliot, but I don't know how you can get a copy as he doesn't seem to have a web site. If you have/had any luck can you let me know. By the way, I was told that it wasn't a girl after all and the whole photo was a hoax to get men drooling (presumably over another man!)
Love to know whether that's true!
