Won't be confiscated


The Poster is a decorative item that can take the place of a wall to disguise what is on the other side. It serves the same purpose as the Fake Wall Block. It cannot be used on cut fences.

If a Guard with a low opinion of you sees a poster you have put up, they will remove it.

Trivia

  • Also as a side note the poster's sprite is different on console versions, most likely because of ratings (The poster looks somewhat inappropriate in the computer version).
  • The magazine's picture is different from the poster's, oddly enough. (Most likely to distinguish the two.)
  • Despite having Duct Tape in the crafting recipe, it isn't contraband and doesn't trigger Contraband Detectors. Guards don't seem to care if you hang a poster on your wall using contraband.
  • If you are sent to solitary, the poster is removed, however, due to a bug, the wall will not be repaired (checked for v1.37 of first game).
  • The poster is a reference to the 1994 film The Shawshank Redemption and serves the same purpose as in the film.
  • The poster in TE2 has the Team 17 logo
