Vintage Movie Posters in Santa Fe - Movie Props and Collectible Posters! Our newest member of crewnewmexico.com


An excellent resource for the New Mexico film industry (pay attention props department) -- Welcome Marty Rosenberg and his Vintage Poster Gallery to the New Mexico Film Directory on crewnewmexico.com.

The Vintage Poster Gallery features rare and collectible posters from the Rosenberg Collection - a remarkable gathering of works from around the world - including the largest Pre-War and Vintage Polish movie poster collection.

Marty and his 8,000 piece collection are an excellent resource for the New Mexico film props departments, and works from the collection have been used in many feature films. Also, many of the posters are from overseas - meaning most film people have never seen them. . . including the actors who's names are prominently featured on the posters. That's why international, vintage movie posters make such an excellent gift within the industry, and why we're doubly glad to welcome the Gallery to crewnewmexico.com.

Vintage Posters is currently featuring a collection of Powerful Polish Movie Posters - its an amazing show (we saw it!), with a fascinating history. And, Marty donates 20% of all sales from the show to the Santa Fe Film Festival.

The Gallery is located at 901 Canyon Road in Santa Fe (click here for map) - walking distance from the production offices on Paseo de Peralta. Open Tues-Sun, 12:00-4:00. (505) 577-7419
