I am currently preparing to move, and revaluating the things I own. I don’t have a lot of stuff, but one thing I’ve been carrying around since sophomore year of college is this poster for Mariah Carey’s bomb “Glitter.” I have come to the difficult decision that I am ready to give it away.
At 3’ x 6’, this poster is so ridiculously large that Mariah Carey is actually bigger than life sized. Her head alone is over a foot long.
You should also note that, before I came into possession of the piece, a vandal used a ball point pen to add tears beneath Mariah Carey’s eyes. Tragic, but the poster is so absurdly oversized you will rarely notice. The poster looks a little rolled up (my roommate of 3 years wouldn’t let me hang it, which isn’t unfair), but it’s made of high quality vinyl so it could be flattened out and loved once again.
True fact - 60 Minutes reporter Leslie Stahl has been in the presence of this poster.
I am ready to pass this treasure on, but I can’t give it away to just anyone. If you’d like the poster, reply to my Craigslist posting and make me believe you could give it a good home. Tell me where you would display it, or what you plan to do with it. Convince me you should have it. I will contact whoever writes the best email Sunday night. If it’s good enough, I’ll post it here too.
You must be able to pick up the poster this week. I will meet you in the Union Square area during the day or the Park Slope area during the night.
I really want to match up the poster with the right person, and you could help by reposting this link and putting it in front of as many people as possible. Thanks!
