Pullman Editions designs, commissions and publishes striking original posters which capture the enduring appeal of Art Deco. Their newly-commissioned posters feature glamorous resorts, winter sports in the European Alps, as well as the world's greatest historic automobiles on the road and track.
The last decade or so has seen enormous growth in the vintage poster market, with prices growing steadily as demand increases for a product with only a finite supply.
In the field of vintage winter sports posters for example, good posters from the 1920s and 1930s comfortably achieve five-figure sums at auction, with the finest posters reaching as much as £30,000 on the rare occasions they become available, excluding them to all but the wealthiest collectors.
Posters, once described as 'a visual shout', proved an attractive, effective means of promotion and 'at-a-glance' display. Poster display was never more inspired than in the Art Deco period when posters, largely produced by Swiss and French railway companies, graced station platforms and billboards to persuade affluent and adventurous travellers to enjoy the newly-fashionable modern luxury travel. The vast majority of these classic posters were destroyed when replaced by other posters - it is the handful of surviving vintage posters that today fetch such dramatic prices.
It is to meet demand from both enthusiastic collectors and admirers of Art Deco, for stylish, decorative yet affordable posters - original works, not reproductions – that Pullman Editions was launched.
Available in strictly limited editions of 280, the posters are printed using traditional techniques on the finest quality 100% cotton fine art paper. They are signed, hand-numbered and bear Pullman Editions' embossed stamp of authenticity. Each poster is approximately 97 x 65 cms (38 x 26 inches), and they are supplied unframed in robust tubes, which can be shipped worldwide.
