Why buy a vintage poster?

A vintage poster has a timeless appeal and is a thing of joy. Vintage art is a wonderful way to add instant personality and style to a home. What’s more, if you move, your art moves with you.

Vintage posters have the magical ability to connect with us on a personal level. Beyond the instant impact of the graphics, there are so many other elements to relate to too. Whether that’s discovering a poster features your favourite film, actor, band or place, or that it’s by an artist you love - it’s always possible to find a vintage poster which means something extra special to you.

As vintage posters were printed in strict runs for display purposes, the originals do not survive in huge numbers. Any which remain in circulation have been lovingly rescued along the way. This means some designs are now very rare and collectible. So, not only will a vintage poster cheer your wall, it could also be a great investment.

But, as every good poster dealer will tell you, it’s always best to just follow your heart.

We hope to see you soon!
