9. Musical Posters & Playbills can definitely be considered art
Especially if the piece is of some historic interest.

e.g. from the original run of "Showboat" or "Oklahoma." Also if you consider the artwork exceptional -- Deco themes are my favorite, but as with everything else, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I myself, have never displayed framed posters, because I never lived in a space big enough to do that. But when I lived in New York, I had plenty of friends in the East Village and Chelsea who did. I did prominently display my most recent playbills in the same way most people display coffee table books.

As for the decorating wars, the best advice I can give is that each of you gets to have at least one room in the house that is uniquely yours -- and you will have to find some common ground on the other areas... I had to put a few things of mine in storage when I moved in with the SO, but we both had some things that we agree on.

Good luck in your new home.
