Any printed piece of paper having text and graphics and used more for advertisement purposes can be better known as posters. Posters just not depict a theme but successfully convey a lot of information about it. For example, by looking at an art poster, you can immediately recognize the era it belonged to or the name of its original painter. Hence, posters are a kind of miniature painting holding so much inside. Reasonably, collectors around the world like to decorate their walls with beautiful posters.

Posters represent the past. They speak so many things about the times gone by. Choose whichever pleases you like art & entertainment, war, food, travel, movie stars, product information, exhibitions and events and sports – posters will surely catch your fancy. People who take interest in history can especially feel attached to posters as they are a rich source of right information.

Usually, posters which are older than 50 years are known as vintage posters. These posters have special value than other posters due to their exclusive style, design and pattern. There are four main determinants to figure out the value of a vintage poster namely; Artist, image, rarity and condition. These four determinants help in calculating the actual cost of a poster.

One can find so many posters that were originally created by famous artists of different eras. Posters created by artists like Alphonse Mucha and Leonetto Cappiello are still very much popular. They are reproduced and sold by many online vintage poster companies. The second important factor is image. Here image means the theme of a poster. Themes like entertainment, war, exhibition and events provide specific information. That is why, they are considered of great value.

Rare posters like Steinlen’s little girl feeding milk to her cats (1894) or Mucha’s beautiful ladies with flowing silk and flowers (c1890) are still very popular. There are so many other posters having their own importance. Finally, the condition of the poster also plays a vital role deciding the price of vintage posters. Vintage posters that look fresh, unique and maintained well cost higher than usual poster.
