hisholm Gallery has been specializing in original posters for over 25 years in New York and
 abroad, featuring such prominent artists as Cappiello, Robys, Herve Morvan, Colin, Fix-Masseau, Leupin, Carlu, Tamagno, Broders, Francis Bernard, Cassandre, Penfield, Dorival, Constant-Duval, Jean d'Ylen, Eric and Savignac. Some notable collectable subjects available at the gallery include food, wine and spirits, travel, exhibition, transport and entertainment.
All our posters are original lithographic advertising pieces. Created for street postings and intended to last a few colorful weeks, these are the exceptions that have survived thanks to printers and early collector enthusiasts! Major influences on poster prices are artist, condition, subject matter and rarity. All posters listed have been archivally mounted on museum paper and then on linen to maintain their excellent condition. In our gallery, many of the posters are one of a kind, while we have duplicates of others. Prices reflect the rarity and replaceability of each piece.  
This is a small representation of some of our inventory. Because we continually buy and sell, we stock over 3000 original posters in our ever-changing inventory. Since it is impossible to show every piece we have, we are happy to search our inventory for a specific poster, genre, period, or subject in your price range. Please call us if you have any questions, need details, or simply want to know more about posters in general. Or perhaps you are still looking for that one elusive piece you saw in a window twenty years ago and haven't seen since!
hisholm Gallery is located at 56 West 22 Street on the Second Floor.

We are open 11-6 pm Tuesday through Friday and 12-5 pm on Saturdays, or by appointment. We hope you have the opportunity to visit the gallery. Call us at 212.243.8834 or email us at gail@vintagepostersnyc.com. Payment for posters can be by check, MasterCard and Visa. Posters are shipped well packed and insured, via UPS. Shipping charges varies between $20-$30 in the US, depending on destination and value. We ship worldwide. Gail Chisholm was the inaugural President of the International Vintage Poster Dealers Association at its inception in 1996.
