Collection introduction
Few movie poster artists shaped the look of late twentieth-century cinema more profoundly than Drew Struzan. Across films such as Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, Blade Runner, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, The Thing and Harry Potter, his artwork gave audiences a complete world in a single image, combining strong likenesses, dramatic light, adventure, danger and wonder with a warmth that made the films feel instantly iconic.
For collectors, posters by Drew Struzan offer a rare combination of major title recognition and unmistakable artistic identity. They are especially rewarding for those drawn to science fiction, fantasy, adventure and franchise cinema, and to collectors who value original posters where the image feels as memorable as the film itself.

Collection Notes
Collecting Drew Struzan posters
Drew Struzan is especially rewarding to collect because his posters belong to the last great age of hand-painted blockbuster imagery. His work helped define how major studio films were presented at the point where adventure, franchise mythology and star recognition all had to live within a single sheet. That gives the collection a rare kind of cohesion: the titles may vary, but the ambition of the image remains unmistakable.
There is also a deeper emotional generosity in Struzan’s work that keeps collectors returning to it. His posters do not merely arrange characters; they create a sense of invitation, memory and cinematic promise that speaks to the experience of going to the movies itself. For collectors drawn to heroic storytelling, painterly craft and original posters that feel inseparable from the mythology of late twentieth-century cinema, Struzan remains one of the defining artists to pursue.
Buying Guide
What to know before you buy
Practical notes on originality, condition, sizes, framing and delivery to help you choose with confidence.
Original cinema posters
Every poster we sell is an original theatrical cinema poster, produced for cinema use rather than as a later reproduction. It is one of the most important distinctions when choosing an authentic piece of cinema artwork.
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, clearly described and guaranteed original.
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 customers choose professional framing or light box display depending on the format, room and style of presentation.
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.
