We’ve got some fabulous vintage advertising wall art heading to our web shop this week – or available to buy as of now if you want to get in touch. We’ll start off with two pieces of film memorabilia – both from the Sci-Fi genre. First, an original film poster for Westworld dating from the 1970s. For fans of the current HBO series, this is where it all started! It’s a classic film with interesting concepts and great acting performances, most notably from Yul Brynner as the menacing robotic cowboy.
And then we have a framed original lobby card from the film Rollerball. Again dating from the 1970s, this film stars James Caan and revolves around the sport of Rollerball which descends & degrades into a violent, almost gladiatorial form… with an overarching theme of the struggle between corporate-run society and the freedom of the individual. They’re both great looking items – and we particularly love the fonts.
And then there are these two vintage product advertising signs. First, a French enamel sign for Bélébon. We really like the bottle & glass design – that glass is filled up just the way we like it! And the bold colour combination of red, yellow and black is a real winner too.
Secondly, what we presume is a dry cleaner’s sign. It puts potential customers’ minds at ease, letting them know that “Our work will satisfy you”. We don’t think they could be accused of hyperbole or overdoing the claims. Again, we like the colours and graphic design of this piece.
