I've got one of those 50 inch by 50 inch Target advertisements and I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. I've looked around online and can't find any information about them. Is this something that other PJ fans want? It's not a poster with unique artwork, but it's still a pretty cool piece.

    I have this hanging in my garage. It's the signs that they used to backlight. It's badass!! I knew the store manager and talked my way into getting it. Love it!! Unique.

    Very cool. Build a box with lights inside to get the backlit effect!

    I'd trade you a poster for it. I like unique things like this.

    I don't see any way to trade it because it's practically impossible to ship, without sinking a couple hundred in shipping charges into it.

    I asked for the one at my local Target. They said they have to destroy them per company policy. Good find!

    Yeah, it's double-sided, cardboardish.

    My wife works there, so she saved it for me. One of the reasons for my screenname!
