LETTERS:Athena's gone but posters live on

From Mr Christopher Nightingale Sir: With regard to Jim White's open letter ("Dear Athena poster girl", 30 December) and subsequent letters (4 and 13 January), the Tennis Girl lives into the Nineties, although she may have changed her sport.

I was the art director responsible for the image, and I am in the process of producing Poster Girl 2000. The demise of Athena from our streets doesn't mean students and youngsters have stopped buying posters to adorn their walls. The image might have changed, but the need to display is still there.

Goodbye Fiona, welcome Naomi.

Yours faithfully, CHRSTOPHER NIGHTINGALE Bristol 17 January
