To be eligible for a refund, the poster must be returned in the same condition in which it arrived. We recommend using the original packaging to help protect it in transit.

You can find our Returns and Refund Policy here.

An original movie poster is one produced by, or with the authorisation of, a film studio for cinema display or promotion at the time of a film’s release. That includes posters for first releases and, in some cases, later re-releases. Posters produced simply for retail sale are reproductions, not originals.

An original poster has a direct connection to the film it was made to promote. It was part of the film’s real release history, not a later decorative copy. That gives it an authenticity, rarity and character that a reproduction cannot replicate.

Condition is always somewhat subjective, which is why we encourage you to study the photographs carefully. We also provide a condition rating to help guide you, from Excellent through to Poor, depending on how visible and significant any wear may be.

Yes. The photographs on our product pages are of the actual poster you are buying, so we encourage you to use them carefully when assessing condition.

You are buying an original piece of film history, not a newly printed object. Some posters — especially older examples — may show signs of age, storage or previous use. That can include folds, light edge wear, pinholes, creases or small surface marks. Where that is the case, we describe it honestly and photograph the actual item you will receive.

Yes. Many older posters were originally issued folded rather than rolled. Fold lines are therefore normal on many pre-1990s posters and are part of how they were distributed at the time.

They can be collectible, and some do rise in value, but we always recommend buying what you love first. The greatest return is living with a piece that means something to you. Any future value should be seen as a bonus rather than a certainty.

Yes. We offer custom framing designed specifically for original movie posters. Our framing is intended to present the poster beautifully while protecting it for long-term display.

We have a dedicated FAQ page for Custom Framing.

We also offer 'off the shelf' movie poster frames as cost-effective DIY framing for 27x40 one sheets and 40x30 UK quad posters.

Light boxes are display framed designed for double-sided cinema posters. When illuminated from behind, they recreate the way these posters were originally intended to be seen.

We have a dedicated FAQ page for Light Boxes.

These are magnets used during photography to hold the poster flat. They are not part of the poster and do not leave any marks upon it.

Linen-backing is a conservation process in which a poster is professionally mounted to archival backing material to stabilise it, reduce the visibility of folds and tears, and make it easier to handle, frame and display.

If you'd like to learn more, this blog post will be useful.

Yes. Many posters can be improved through professional conservation and restoration, particularly where there are folds, tears or small losses. We can advise on what is possible and, where appropriate, may be able to arrange this work for you.

Yes. We work with experienced paper conservators and can advise on suitable options for posters that would benefit from backing or restoration.

We always aim to process poster and Light Box orders the same day and send them using a 24-hour service.

Larger posters that require bespoke packaging may take longer, but if they do, we will let you know.

For orders that include custom framing, please allow around two weeks for framing and delivery.

Yes. UK shipping is free, using a tracked and insured service. This is usually by Royal Mail's ParcelForce.

Yes. We ship posters internationally on a regular basis, usually with UPS. International shipping is free for all orders over £250.

Possibly. Deliveries to your country may be subject to import duties, local taxes and related administration charges, and any charges that become due are the responsibility of the receiver.

If those charges are refused, the order may not automatically be returned and may ultimately be disposed of, in which case we may be unable to provide a refund.

At present, framed items and light boxes are available for UK delivery only. Unframed posters can still be shipped internationally.
