SELLING MOVIE POSTERS FAQ

Frequently asked questions about selling movie posters.

How can I tell if a movie poster is original?

Mostly by paper quality and age. The older a movie poster is, the better chance it is original. Many older movie posters contain, and NSS information tag number, but this is not always true. Each poster has its own fingerprints for ways of determining when it was printed.

What details are on a movie poster?

Movie posters almost always contain the title of the film, and often the names of main actors or production crew. Additionally, movie posters will contain other information to inform viewers about the movie.

Is it worth buying original movie posters?

It depends on what you are after. If the most important thing to you is strictly the image, there are many cheaper ways of finding a reproduction. But, if the pedigree of the poster itself has value to you, then yes, it is worth investing in original movie posters. Generally speaking, original posters for fan favorite movies will appreciate in value over time.

Why are movie posters so expensive?

Most original movie posters were displayed in theaters, which means that the great majority of them have damage from use. This includes tack holes, dogears, rips, or other damage. Because of this, finding original movie posters in high grade is very rare. Thus, they are pricey.

Are original movie posters double-sided?

Before the 1980s, most movie posters are one-sided, but around that time it became normal for posters to be printed double sided so that their colors would pop better in lit marquees.

Is it worth it to frame a movie poster?

Framing is expensive, so before spending a lot of money to frame an 8-dollar poster you want to make sure that the poster is worth it. Original, high value movie posters are definitely worth framing to protect their condition and value.
