Vintage Posters

Wrestling promo posters and movie one-sheets, mostly from the late 1980s through the 1990s, gathered one piece at a time. The current floor is weighted toward Titan Sports promotional art (Ultimate Warrior, Undertaker, Lex Luger, Bret Hart, Holiday Wish Tour) with a smaller selection of theatrical one-sheets and publisher promo art (Marvel, Paramount).

The Titan Sports posters in this collection were not theatrical one-sheets. They were offset lithographed for distribution through the WWF Pro Shop catalog, magazine pull-outs, and live-event merchandise tables. The 1997 WWF Pro Shop Winter Catalog also lives in the shop as a companion artifact, the source document for how these posters reached the wall of a 12-year-old in 1992. Mail-order receipt required a money order to a Stamford PO Box and four to six weeks of waiting.

The movie posters here are catalogued by size and distribution channel rather than by the language of authentication. A 27x40 trim points to a post-1990 American theatrical one-sheet. A 27x41 with a white border points to pre-1990 studio distribution. A 24x36 trim points to consumer reprint. The differences are visible at the edge before any other test is needed.

Every piece is one of one. When a poster sells, it is gone from the shop and replaced by whatever crosses the doorway next. Inventory rotation runs on the same cadence as the rest of the catalog: Container Park foot traffic, mail-in finds, and the occasional estate or dealer sweep. Condition notes live on each individual product page. Framed pieces are noted in the title.

The shop is on the ground floor of Downtown Container Park at 707 East Fremont Street, east side, suite 1170. Pieces shown online are also browsable in person.
