Movie posters, which were printed strictly as advertising material, were never meant to fall into the hands of the public. The movie theaters they were sent to were required to return them to the originating distributing or poster company. Movie posters were usually printed in numbers needed to supply the theaters showing the particular film. Most of the posters were returned to the source after use and destroyed. This makes them pretty rare collectibles.  more
