Looking for a classic film poster?

Welcome to VintageMoviePoster.org, your resource for purchasing movie posters with a vintage touch. Many movies over the years have had great artwork that captures the feel of the movie. No matter what genre, Horror, Romance, Action or Comedy,  movie poster art can awaken memories or cause us to want to see the film for the first time.

We normally think of vintage items as coming from a period in the distant past, or a particular era. For me that evokes thoughts of the 1940s and '50s. Westerns, like "Fort Apache" or "My Darling Clementine" starred legendary actors, such as John Wayne and Henry Fonda. Horror films, like "The Wolf Man" and "The Body Snatcher" are classics and stars like Lon Chaney Jr, Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi became household names. Buying the movie posters from this era for your walls can evoke many emotions and represent some of the most popular choices.

Some collectors don't consider it "vintage" unless it is the actual poster sent to the theater to advertise the film. The original movie posters can be very expensive, but the advances in digital printing allow you to acquire beautiful prints that will look great on your wall. If you are not collecting the poster as an investment, filling your home or office with colorful poster art is easy, especially when done online.

Also understanding the concept that posters from more recent movies, The Godfather, Star Wars, Superman are examples of what many consider classic art prints that will be vintage in nature. I personally don't get too hung up on the term "vintage". Go with your gut feelings and you will be fine.

Don't limit your search to just domestic movies, unless that is your goal. Many classic foreign films had wonderfully arty posters. Once the Foreign Film category was added to the Oscars, Americans got to see excellent poster art created for these movies. This continues to be true today from many countries -  Poland, France, Italy and more.

The categories of movies are endless, so begin your search for a vintage movie poster at VintageMoviePoster.org.
