One of the most popular types of vintage posters to collect are movie posters. While not as popular these days with other mediums of advertising available, in the early days of movie theatres they were featured quite often, and some of the classic films' posters can be considered collector's items.
As with most collector's items, vintage movie posters can be tricky to come by. This is in part because there are quite a few avid collectors of these types of items, so they can be pretty scarce. Obviously, they are in limited quantities as well, so if one is damaged or lost, it cannot be replaced. But, for many people, a vintage movie poster is a great decoration or collector's item and well worth the effort it takes to get one.
