I have been collecting vintage movie posters for 15 years and always enjoyed posters designed by Amsel and Struzan. To me though the best movie posters ever made were from the 1920's and 30's. That was truly the golden age of movie posters. the main reason being that movie posters were the only real way to visually advertise the film. Most people would decide what movies to see by looking at the poster art. There was no television back then, just radio, newspaper, and posters. Enjoy collecting, its a great hobby!

Maybe you've head of em, but the Alamo Drafthouse has been commissioning an ongoing series of awesome modern movie posters. Those posters are pretty great.
