<h1>Vintage Posters: A Jackpot!</h1> <p align=right>by Joseph Sicurella</p> <div align=justify>The first vintage color poster came out in Paris, 1869. Advertising a large variety of products, they were stuck on every available flat surface. Posters were so effective that they were produced more than twice. The first printing run edition, however, is considered the original and most printers put these aside for collector clubs which became famous around the 1890s. Toulouse-Lautrec’s 3-sheet, “Moulin Rouge” fetched more than $220,000, in 1989 —the highest paid price for vintage posters at that time. Italian, Swiss, Russian, Dutch, German, and British posters too have become specialties with prices rising steadily for many categories such as Olympics, war, travel, and propaganda. We have a large collection of vintage art nouveau, and art deco posters. Some popular vintage posters include Coca-Cola ads, and Guinness prints. Vintage auto images in a car enthusiasts’ home or automobile showroom, vintage liquor ads in a bar or den etc. set the mood and bring character to the rooms they grace. </div> <p align=center>Article source: <a href="http://www.ArticlePros.com/arts_and_entertainment/painting/article-68938.html">ArticlePros.com</a></p> <table align=center width=550 cellspacing=1 bgcolor=silver cellpadding=5> <tr bgcolor=antiquewhite> <td> <p align=center><b>About the author</b></p> <p align=justify>Joseph Sicurella is an artist had a deep appreciation for art since childhood.
