Wow, incredible gallery.

Reminds me of this Russian Propaganda poster gallery, though Nitsche much more American Deco.

Metafilter: rules.

Holy Shit this site is amazing. Thanks Patricking!
Anyone tried to purchase one of the listed vintage posters? Uber-expensive?

blastrid: click on each thumbnail to get the pricing.

As a no-cost alternative, get on this company's mailing list and they will send you postcards featuring their posters 4-5 times/year. I got all Martha one day and decopaged a bunch into drink coasters.

Wow I wish someone made reprints of these. Anyone know of any? I searched around a bit and couldn't find any.
