Does anyone know if there are any Delta Queen, Natchez, Julia Belle Swain etc. wall posters available from anywhere or anyone? I remember Dad had a poster from the DQSC in the 70s picturing the boat with the text "MARDI GRAS!" underneath. Anything similar still around?

They show up sometimes on Ebay, or at flea markets, or as extras in private collections... anything in particular you're interested in??? On Ebay, check out the category 'broadside'

Jon,
I believe that poster is considered "a catch" to today's DQ stuff collector. There are artists who specialize in steamboat pics, and often stuff shows up on eBay. I have a few on my walls from there, and one I bought on the landing at Natchez last year. I would suspect that the BOL website might even have one you could buy from them.
Good luck, the hunting is half the fun!

Jon, one of my best posters of the DQ is a picture that has been blown up. It is so large that I had to place it in my garage with my Harleys. Maybe you should look through your pictures and go to Wolf Camera to make it the size you want or what best fits the wall you want to place it.
