A small selection taken from the main catalogue that we think deserve a special mention. Posters that feature great artwork, beautiful typography or are just so minimalist, they would look great on any wall.
Dummy was Portishead's first album released in 1994. Portishead was a duo of Geoff Barrow and Beth Gibbons. Adrian Utley, who co-produced the album with them (and who played on nine of the tracks and co-wrote eight), became an official band member shortly after its release.
The album is often considered one of the greatest trip hop albums to date and is a milestone in the definition of the genre and despite the band's aversion to press coverage, the album was successful in both Europe and the US (where it sold more than 150,000 copies even before the band toured there). Dummy was described by Melody Maker as "musique noire for a movie not yet made". Rolling Stone praised it as "Gothic hip-hop". Dummy spawned three singles: "Numb", "Sour Times" and "Glory Box", and won the Mercury Music Prize in 1995. The success of the album saw the band nominated for Best British Newcomer at the 1995 Brit Awards. In 2003, the album was ranked number 419 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

Our posters are 100% original and exclusive to The Original Poster Shop.
It’s true that there are many outlets that you can purchase posters from, so what makes us different? The answer is in the product itself.
The vast majority of poster suppliers in the world today sell reproduction posters. These are modern reprinted posters that are produced at a much later date than the originals. On the face of it, these copies may look virtually the same as the originals, but that is where the similarity ends.
When buying a reproduction poster, you are in essence buying a novelty item, an item that although may superficially look the part, has no real value, history and is certainly not an investment.
We at The Original Poster Shop only ever provide our customers with original Record and Film Company licensed authentic posters. These posters are beautifully printed, using only the finest quality materials.
They were produced and the time that the event or product was being promoted, making them a true piece from the era.
Bearing in mind that the majority of the posters were manufactured to be displayed outside, in inclement weather, they are not only beautiful, but also incredibly durable collectors items.
We only stock original posters and have very limited quantities of some posters, so once these are depleted, they will be removed from sale - remember, we do not sell reproduction posters!
