One owner collection of UK lobby cards and quads

This collection comes to us from a retired cinema manager and were all used by him before being stored away in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s.  This means they are not only a one owner collection, he is also the only previous owner of these items.

The collection includes a fair number of lobby cards which were displayed in the cinema foyer to promote the film - as you might expect, these are all in great condition. And there are a selection of quad posters, many of which have pinholes in the corners because that’s how they were mounted at the time at that particular venue. We might view this as a fault but we should also remember that it’s part of the unique history of a poster that had a real commercial purpose before it became a collector’s item. The pinholes are proof of that.
