THE POSTERS THAT SOLD CINEMA’S MOST DEFINING MOVIES GO UNDER THE HAMMER IN $1.2 MILLION AUCTION

These posters were never meant to last, yet many of them have endured for decades.”

— Grey Smith, Director of Posters US at Propstore

LOS ANGELES , CA, UNITED STATES, February 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Propstore, one of the world’s leading entertainment memorabilia auction houses, presents its upcoming Spring Collectible Posters Auction. Showcasing classic cinema from sweeping romance and high adventure to horror, superheroes, and everything in between, the sale brings together nearly 900 poster lots and is expected to achieve over $1.2 million.

Charting the evolution of film from the silent era through to the modern screen, the collection will be offered over three days from March 6 – 8, 2026, giving fans and collectors a rare opportunity to acquire enduring pieces of cinema history.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

Fans of classic Universal horror are in for a treat, with a rare Pre-War Belgian poster for The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) being offered for the first time in over 20 years. Marking the first on-screen appearance of the Bride, this striking poster carries a pre-sale estimate of $15,000–$30,000. Further highlights from the Universal canon include a British Quad from Horror of Dracula (1958), appearing in a Propstore auction for the first time, with a pre-sale estimate of $20,000–$40,000.

Collectors of classic comedy will find a rare One Sheet poster from Horse Feathers (1932), appearing at Propstore for the first time. A standout example from the Marx Brothers’ early career, the poster comes to auction with a pre-sale estimate of $30,000–$40,000.

The auction also features notable noir thriller titles, including a One Sheet poster from Billy Wilder’s multiple Academy Award–winning Sunset Boulevard (1950). Both nightmarish and timeless in its design, the poster is offered with an estimate of $6,000–$12,000. Also included is a One Sheet poster from Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo (1958). Featuring a dizzying illustration by Saul Bass that perfectly reflects the film’s theme of acrophobia, this poster comes to auction with a pre-sale estimate of $4,000–$8,000.

Propstore’s Spring Collectible Posters Auction will take place over three days from March 6th – 8th, 2026. Day One of the sale will be a live-streamed online event, with Days Two and Three online only, starting at 09:30 AM PST / 5:30 PM GMT each day.
