You don't need us to tell you what gifts to buy for whom. But we all need a little inspiration occasionally and you might get an idea from the following examples of when, why and what vintage film poster might fit the bill for a gift occasion.
Or you can always just choose someone's favourite film, actor, or genre, or perhaps even an appropriate tagline!
And you can always buy something to suit their office or work environment rather than their home - from "Anatomy of a Murder" for a criminal lawyer or "A Pair of Briefs" for a barrister to "Confessions of a Taxi Driver" for a minicab office.
The opportunities are almost endless. Congratulations. Father's Day. Mother's Day. Retirement. Thank you. Or no special reason at all.
Not everyone has the space for larger pieces, and sometimes not everyone in the household shares the same enthusiasm for movie posters (although we think they should!).
For these instances, a Lobby Card, or other smaller format, such as an Italian locandina or fotobusta, may be a better choice.
There is lots of choice, and our Theme Search may help you, but if you can't find what you're looking for here - or if you need more inspiration - then please contact us.

| The occasion | The gift |
|---|---|
| Anniversary | Perhaps the first film you saw together at the cinema? Or maybe an appropriate title like "It Started in Naples" or "An Affair to Remember". |
| Birthday | For a 'milestone' birthday, think about a poster from a film made the year they were born. |
| Christening | An imaginative alternative to the usual gifts. The year's big Disney or Pixar release, perhaps? |
| Christmas | A perfect gift. Or even some seasonal decoration, such as "White Christmas" or "It's a Wonderful Life". |
| Valentine's Day | How about "Dream Wife" or "Roman Holiday"? Or for those with a sense of humour what about "Carry On Loving", "Casanova's Big Night", or even "How to Murder Your Wife"? |
| Wedding | A thoughtful way to thank the best man or chief bridesmaid, or an original gift for the happy couple themselves. |

A CHOICE OF SHAPES AND SIZES
One Sheet and larger posters have a fantastic impact when framed, but there are times when something smaller is more appropriate.Not everyone has the space for larger pieces, and sometimes not everyone in the household shares the same enthusiasm for movie posters (although we think they should!).
For these instances, a Lobby Card, or other smaller format, such as an Italian locandina or fotobusta, may be a better choice.
