Why are vintage posters so special?

Original vintage posters combine high visual impact and the imperfect beauty of lithographic printing with a soulful quality which is impossible to replicate. They were printed in strict runs to be displayed and were never intended to be kept as art. Those that have survive have been lovingly rescued along the way.

Posters were designed as functional items to promote an idea or event and so they had to quickly grab the attention of passers-by. Artists were always striving for impact and originality. They were constantly trying out new techniques, unafraid to push the boundaries of graphic design.

‘The combination of manual production processes, bold visual appeal and cultural and art historical significance achieved through the use of forward-thinking graphic techniques, contribute to the growing appeal of the poster, and explain why it holds a special place in the eyes of a collector' says Sophie Churcher, ex Christie's vintage poster specialist and Clapton exhibitor (Tomkinson Churcher)
