Press Release Summary = In North America, particularly in the United States some originals movie posters are considered collectible items and can be worth hundreds if not thousands of dollars while other originals may be worth next to nothing depending on the movie that cause their existence. Using movie posters to decorate your home theatre does not have to be an expensive undertaking.
Press Release Body = September 22, 2006 -- If you own original movie posters and have determined they are of collectible status and expect their value to appreciate over time Leo recommends that you keep them stored in a safe place free of excessive heat and humidity and use instead, the reproduction version of the posters you have for your decorating project.
Experience indicate you can achieve the same theme or effect with reproduction movie posters. Reproduction movie posters of old originals are refurbished posters (i.e. stains, tapes or tape marks, creases and holes removed and color deterioration enhanced) manufactured to a quality level acceptable for decorating purposes at a fraction of the cost of the originals.
Originals are usually more expensive and are frequently acquired for investment purposes. As such, they should be safely preserved in a safe place to avoid deterioration in quality. Thousands of dollars can be lost from damaged originals that have been improperly stored. One must be sure to keep originals stored properly to safeguard their possible investment status at a future time.
Unfortunately, sellers (dealers) don't always tell you about the possible deterioration that can occur with high-priced original movie posters if you fail to store them properly. Damaged originals in poor shape will not necessarily command the selling price you had aspired for ten or twenty years from now, even when the demand exceeds the supply. All is not lost however, as modern technology can easily restore damaged originals to high quality reproductions you can use for your home decorating project.
The most popular and frequently used economical alternative for decorating a home theatre is the reduced size (11" x 17") reproduction of the original (27" x 41") called Movie Poster Art or Master Print. These are available for purchase online at Art Posters International (http://www.art-posters.net) in just the right format and quality standards for wall decorating and may be framed, laminated, plaque or canvass mounted.
If for example the decorating theme you are trying to achieve requires the use of old classics dating back many years you will find that reproductions would better serve your decorating needs as the originals would most likely contain defects such as holes, tears, stains, lines from folding, torn edges and sometimes the original colors have substantially deteriorated.
The bulkiness of full size originals (27" x 41") make them comparatively less desirable for decorating limited wall space areas and look awkward and cumbersome. On the other hand the reduced size reproductions are more easily juxtaposed and manipulated to achieve the desired theme one wishes to portray on the wall.
Historically, these usually colorful original creations have been used extensively and exclusively for advertising movies in theatres and elsewhere and have exchanged many hands and traveled from theatre to theatre, sometimes on a nationwide basis so what you get is perhaps an original that has been folded, pinned, taped or even mutilated from mishandling, hence the reason one must inquire about "condition" prior to purchasing an old original that dates back many years. By overlooking this truism you will unknowingly purchase a piece of useless junk with a de-valuated quality you cannot resell or only get pennies for.
Generally speaking, home theatre decorating with movie posters was virtually unheard of until now, due primarily to the high acquisition costs of ones' favorite original and the fact that most older originals are often not in enough good repair to give the decorating quality one intends to obtain. Today, only the wealthy is most likely able to afford decorating their home theatres with highly expensive originals.
Assuming you wanted to decorate with original King Kong memorabilia posters, you would quickly discover that an original 27" x 41" one sheet poster of this movie would probably be worth something of the order of $80,000 to $100,000 or more! Evidently, your decorating project would become cost-prohibitive if you intended to use originals for your project.
Art Posters Intl recognized the need for a cheaper but high quality alternative to satisfy the needs of the home theatre decorating industry. By making available a comprehensive range of high quality reproductions of vintage movie posters, low income shoppers are able to decorate their home theatres the way they always wanted while achieving the same theme and effect including Hollywood glamour, nostalgic appeal as well as other desirable effects that equals or exceed the art and imagery quality of expensive originals.

While some newer and older original movie posters are available at prices average consumers can afford, their collectible nature make them less attractive for decorating uses as they could potentially increase in value over time.
