Collection introduction
Few film trilogies have produced a poster image as instantly recognisable as Back to the Future. From the original film onwards, the franchise’s theatrical artwork captured a distinctive mix of adventure, wit and forward momentum, helping to cement its place within the visual culture of 1980s cinema.
This collection brings together original Back to the Future movie posters that reflect the trilogy’s enduring appeal on screen and on the wall. For collectors, they offer not only nostalgia, but one of the clearest and most memorable examples of blockbuster poster design from the late twentieth century.

Collection Notes
Collecting Back to the Future Posters
Back to the Future movie posters hold a special place in modern film collecting, not least because the series is associated with some of the most recognisable theatrical artwork of its era. Central to that legacy is the work of Drew Struzan, whose poster designs helped give the trilogy a visual identity as memorable as the films themselves. His artwork brought together character, motion and cinematic promise in a way that became inseparable from the franchise’s appeal.
Across the trilogy, the posters balance adventure, humour and invention with unusual confidence, capturing the sense of momentum that runs through the films. For collectors, they offer more than nostalgia alone: they represent a high point in blockbuster poster illustration, as well as a lasting example of how a franchise could be defined through a single, powerful visual language.
Collector Guidance
What to know before you buy
Practical notes on originality, condition, sizes, framing and delivery for collectors considering pieces from this collection.
Original cinema posters
Every item in this collection is original cinema material, not a modern decorative reproduction. We photograph and describe each piece individually so you can understand its format, condition and release context before buying.
Original movie posters vs reproductions
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. At Art of the Movies, we specialise in original cinema posters, lobby cards and movie stills, carefully checked and clearly described for collectors.
Condition and age
Condition varies naturally with age, use and format. We describe each piece carefully so you can judge its appeal both as film memorabilia and as an object for display.
Poster sizes and formats
Collections may include one sheets, quads, lobby cards, stills and other formats. Measurements, scale and format are always worth checking before purchase or framing.
Framing and display
Many collectors choose professional framing or light box display depending on the format. Where suitable, display options can help turn a poster into a more immediate interior piece.
Packaging and delivery
Orders are packed with care and sent with the same attention we bring to sourcing and describing the posters themselves, helping them arrive ready for collection or display.
