There are several auction houses that occasionally have poster auctions and consigning your movie posters to them can be an option.

Speaking of selling movie posters (sorry, I'm an avid movie poster collector!), I understand completely if you want to talk to one or a few possible buyers before selling your movie memorabilia. It's smart. All I'm saying is contact me too. I spend a lot of money to acquire the movie posters I want. If you're selling a movie poster, selling a lobby card or selling any kind of movie memorabilia, you'll want to talk to me.

So you're looking to sell a movie poster?

There's a lot of information out there on the web about how much it might be worth. If you want someone's opinion who has been in the business for 'quite a few years', make sure to contact me before you sell the movie poster to someone else.

Talk to the others too if you want, but I'm a serious and avid collector. Huge finders fees paid immediately!
