Description:
Before radio and television, posters were the only real means of marketing to the masses. Wealthy companies hired artists like Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Leonetto Cappiello and Theophile Alexandre Steinlen to create images. The Vintage Poster stocks more than 2,000 original posters, many of which are printed on durable cotton rag paper. Top quality originals cost from $200 to more than $8,500. The store also sells less-expensive reproductions. (Jit Fong Chin)
