  • 1940s MOVIE POSTERS

    1940s movie posters were designed to promote movies and theaters for the decade. These vintage movie posters are typically in color and feature images of actors, actresses, and scenes from the era’s movies. Movie posters from this era are highly sought after due a shift in how films were marketed after World War II.

    Film/Art Gallery is one of the leading sellers of 1940s movie posters. Driven by film art collectors, we are here for you should you be interested in starting a collection, expanding your current collection or looking for the perfect gift for a loved one.
