Hi Roberta, How about Warhol's Campbells Tomato Soup print? Or alternatively some retro food brand advertising posters?

Vintage fruit box labels are good framed up: http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?s...sc&ship_to=
Or how about these: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?lis...ncludes[]=title http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?lis...ncludes[]=title http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?lis...ncludes[]=title http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?lis...ncludes[]=title http://www.etsy.com/search_results_shop....=farmers+market

Allposters.co.uk has some meat cuts type posters. They have millions so you'd have to do some judicious searching, but here's one example: http://www.allposters.co.uk/gallery.asp?...=&SearchID=
Also, Ladybird (as in the children's books) have made images from their vintage books available as posters. Again, lots of searching required, but here are a couple: http://www.ladybirdprints.com/image.php?id=213853&idx=6&fromsearch=true

Oh, I remember my mum had this when I was little: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/The-Readers-Digest...%3A1%7C294%3A25
It has lots of fabulous illustrations such as cuts of meat, types of fruit, cheeses, etc. I was fascinated by it as a child in the 70s! You could get a cheap copy on ebay and dismantle it to frame the pictures - they would look fab, though smaller than poster size.

the robert opie collection (think that's the spelling) do really cool retro adverts, for marmite etc, and they're really great. You know the metal/enamel ones? They've loads of old ads and sizes to chose from. I saw one on www.e-tailtherapy.com the other week, and they're actually not very expensive.
Enjoy.
