News-Antique.com - Dec 21,2008 - It’s been 63 years since this love affair began. For the past several years it has become an annual Christmas event. Millions watch it every year and can't wait until next year when they can see it again. To this day the only other comparable classic to command such annual devotion is "The Wizard of Oz" . Not even "Gone with the Wind" has resulted in the demand and remarkable global popularity as these two classics. And some may argue that not even OZ hits the emotional cord as powerful as A Wonderful Life.
In the world of vintage movie poster collecting we often measure the impact of a film based on the value of memorabilia. And collectors have responded to ‘It’s a Wonderful Life” movie by paying over $20,000 for the original one sheet movie poster. Conway’s Vintage Treasures has recently acquired the complete lobby card set, including the coveted Title Card.
For over 20 years Conway’s Vintage Treasures has been scouring the universe in search of the most unusual collectibles and antiques. Not the typical material you see at most antique shows, but rare, selective material like highly Rare Autographs from some of the most extraordinary personalities that ever lived. In addition to Premium Primitive Fine Art we also get excited over historical and movie memorabilia such as original presidential documents and stunning Vintage Movie Posters. These were the posters actually used in the movie theatres over 50 years ago before the computer generated posters replaced the highly talented movie poster artists of the silver screen era. The vintage artwork on many of these movie posters is amazing. For example, note the stunning artwork for “House on Haunted Hill”, a 1959 horror classic starring Vincent Price on our web site.
