Are Investments In Original Posters Worth It?

The world of investments wonders me every day. There are many opportunities available for investment, from ancient holdings like gold, art and real estate to newer forms of investments like cryptocurrencies and equity markets.

Every Individual tries to make money one way or another; some invest in physical assets while some invest in ideas. Artwork has been a significant source of investment for hundreds of years. Monarchs, diplomats and bankers invested heavily in artwork like paintings they thought had value.

Another reason for investments in artworks was that they offered easy transport and were not physical assets like real estate and heavy amounts of gold that would be left behind in case of an invasion. Posters are a form of artwork that was not made to be sold. Still, with time owing to their rarity and emotional linkages of the consumer with the idea behind the poster, these artworks became valuable, and their demand increased.

Many original posters that go for thousands of dollars are often unavailable for sale because of low supply. Here are some of the famous posters listed with us.

Henri Matisse - Nice La Danseuse Creole - 1965 ( £1,250.00 )

Featuring his incredible 1950 artwork "La Danseuse Creole" or "Creole Dancer" created during the "Cut-Out" series, this Henri Matisse poster was created by the French Tourism Office to promote travel to Nice in the South of France. The artwork depicts famous dancer Katherine Dunham who sat for Matisse in his home in France.

Bally - Rocks - 1970 ( £1,200.00 )

Beautifully designed poster from 1970 advertising the luxury Swiss shoe brand Bally. With artwork from French graphic designer and poster artist Alain Gauthier, this dark and luxurious piece oozes class, especially in its extra-large size.

The poster market is too big and unorganised to determine if it's worth investing in as a whole. Moreover, we do not have any indices like NIFTY to track their rates as we do with stocks. Although, investments in particular pieces can be worth the effort. Reports indicate that some posters have outperformed the stock markets by many times. For Example:

This 1981 Poster From the movie "Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back" has experienced a manifold increase in its rates since it started selling in the market. It has outperformed many indices and indexes. However, you could avail this original star wars poster from us for only £645.00.

There are many examples of similar posters in the market that have the potential to provide considerable returns. Fans of particular events and movies are always searching for their favourite original posters and are ready to pay more than the market price.

A collector or investor must understand the idea behind the poster before purchasing a poster. If an investor aligns himself with the theory of why a particular poster has value, it becomes easy for him to profit from the purchase. We are printed originals, and we offer a complete range of authentic posters for both art enthusiasts and investors.
