Determining The Value Of A Vintage Poster
During the later 1970s, buying and selling vintage posters became hot. The market focused on the most popular artists like Jules Cheret and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Posters manufactured by artists from the Art deco period, like Fix- Masseau also became very popular.
If you would like to start building your own vintage poster collection, it's important that you know how to determine a poster's value. Here are some tips that you are able to follow when appraising an advert.
Printing technique
Posters made between the late 1800s and early 1900s were created employing the printing technique of stone lithography. Today, posters of this kind are very costly and are considered as rare finds.
Lithography is a printing process where colors that are to be used are put on individually on a porous stone. With an acid, the design is designed on the stone and ink is spread on the stone so that it is drawn in on the plan. The stone is then pressed on a paper to transfer the plan. Once one color had dried, the process is done again using other colors with other designs etched on it.
Stone lithography is replaced by silk screen and photo offset when World War 2 ended. Posters that are made from silk screen and photo offset are less expensive than those created using stone Lithography although posters drawn using this technique may be sold at a higher price if the posters are rare, manufactured by familiar artists or advertised a popular movie. Poster from Switzerland or Japan can likewise be very expensive.
Originality
Genuine posters are more expensive than authorized reproductions. Most posters created employing the lithography technique only has one original copy as lithography is a very costly technique to use in making posters.
Achievements and Recognitions
Posters produced by well known artists like Cheret are costly. Those created by Toulouse- Lautrec have a high value because his posters paved the method to the acceptance of the medium as fine art. With this, many artists started to venture on making posters.
Here is a listing of a few of the most popular poster artists in the industry
- Adolphe Mouron Cassandre
- Angelo Cesselon
- Henri de Toulouse- Lautrec
- Jules Cheret
- Jean Carlu
- Gorgeous Angle
- Michael Byrne
- Milton Glaser
- Mark Young
- Favianna Rodrigues
Subject
Subjects may vary depending on the kind of poster that is designed. Some popular subjects are bikes, cars, well-known political propagandas and women. Subjects of the poster depend greatly on the time that the poster was made.
Rarity
The amount of copies that an ad has will have an impression on how much a poster is marketed. Posters that simply have a finite number of copies would have a very high selling price.
The amount of copies of an ad may be hard to work out. It's very important that you do your research well when purchasing a vintage poster that is stated to be rare.
Preservation
How the poster is stored will also have a sway on its price. Posters of top quality and in good condition will generally be sold at a higher price than those that weren't preserved well.
When collecting vintage posters, it's very essential that you know how to look at an advertisement well so that you don't pay too much for a billboard that should not be sold at a high price.
