Collection introduction

The 1960s and 1970s produced some of the most distinctive poster design in cinema history. These were decades in which illustration, typography and photographic experimentation all played a larger role in how films were presented, creating theatrical posters that often feel as compelling today as the films themselves.

This collection brings together original movie posters from the 1960s and 1970s, offering collectors a view across two transformative periods in cinema. From studio-era finales and international film culture to New Hollywood, cult filmmaking and genre reinvention, these original theatrical posters preserve the visual identity of films released at a time of major cinematic change.

Collection Notes

Poster Design in an Era of Cinematic Change

The 1960s and 1970s were decades of profound change in cinema, and their posters reflect that shift clearly. Earlier traditions of studio publicity and illustrative spectacle remained visible, but were increasingly joined by more experimental layouts, bolder typography, photographic collage and striking new approaches to colour and mood. The result was a period of exceptional variety in theatrical poster design.

These years also coincided with major changes in film culture itself. International influences became more visible, genre cinema grew more adventurous, and directors began to reshape the relationship between commercial filmmaking and artistic ambition. Original posters from the period preserve not only the look of individual films, but the changing tone of cinema as an art form and a mass medium.

For collectors, original theatrical posters from the 1960s and 1970s offer some of the richest material in the field. They combine strong visual character with historical significance, and remain among the most rewarding posters to study, display and collect.

An original movie poster was produced as part of a film’s theatrical advertising campaign. It is different from a later decorative print or reproduction.
