Re: Posters

I'm a little shy about responding to these messages concerning sumo posters, but
after reading Steve's posting about a Konishiki poster, I want to say that
one might possibly be able to get a very nice, large poster of Konishiki
from a music store!

While in Vienna, Austria, in November, walking up one of the main pedestrian
streets downtown, there was a poster about 2 feet by 3 feet (very rough
estimate--it was, appropriately, very big) of Konishiki staring out at me
from a music store.  I was so startled that I took Bob and his
colleague/friend back to see it after they were done with their work. Our
friend said it was an advertisement for a new album, I think by Arrowsmith,
called "Big Guys" and Konishiki was the entire poster promoting it!  I will
be interested in learning if someone else has seen it and also if anyone can
get a copy.
