Movie Poster Stores: Whats on your Walls?
« on: October 06, 2012, 06:31:07 AM »
Unless someone else has started this, hows about pics of places that sell posters and their displays?

This is a picture framer in Sydney, who did framing for me, and not only sells movie posters, but has an impressive personal collection (not pictured). I wont post his collection images, he can if he likes, but he hasnt posted to NS4 for years, so dont hold your breath.

Anyways his framing studio is right near where I usually live in Sydney, and he changes the window display all the time.
He has a thing for large posters, and since he is a framer, he is lucky enough to be able to get them framed.

Anyways, enjoy,(oh these were taken August this year)

I can only dream about places like that anywhere near me :(

Although I did find a poster (travel & adverts) store in Montreal during a random walk while I was there...

Is it funny that 1st thing I think of on seeing the posters right in the window is that "OMG - they are going to fade!!!"?

That's what I thought!

Looks like he replenishes his stock from a well known movie poster auctioneer based in White Plains MO...not sure which one tho'

There is a comment on that photo:

"This fire department is out of WEST PLAINS not White Plains. There is only a White Plains NY. Not a White Plains MO. Please change this misinformation. Thank you."

White Plains, NY, is a boring-ass part of my world.
Traffic sucks, too.
More cars than people...

What a cool looking place, Ari. It's like a poster treasure trove. Are they still in business?
