Vintage Cuban film poster prints

Cuba

Some months back, we featured the Vintage Poster Auction at Bloomsbury, pointing out some rather stylish Cuban film posters, which were selling for upwards of £500. If you liked them, but didn’t like the price, you might want to check out the Cuban Posters website, home of the vintage Cuban film poster prints.

All the posters are handmade silkscreen prints, sourced in Cuba and guaranteed to brighten up any room. Check out the site for the full range, with the two above being typical of the pop art style – Los Tres Mosqueteros (aka Richard Lester’s The Three Musketeers) from 1974 and Mi Hermano Fidel from 1977

Both are sized at 20 x 30 inches and both sell for just over £30.

An Alphabet by Sir Peter Blake postcard set

Blake_postcards

If you’re looking for a last-minute stocking filler for Christmas, the An Alphabet by Sir Peter Blake postcard set might just fit the bill.

It is what it says – a set of alphabet postcards, with each letter featuring a distinctive pop art-style Peter Blake design, all packaged in an added Blake box. There’s only one downside – you might not want to give it away.

Great for framing, great for sending and great value too – the set retails for £12.

Bret Kane’s pop art-style Space Invaders art prints

Kane

Nice to see something a little different in the world of art, which is what Bret Kane is offering with his Space Invaders art prints.

The prints are sold in sets of three, in a choice of arcade green or the slightly more bold three-colour set, all featuring stylised images of the classic arcade Invader and limited to just 50 of each. Not just cheap print-offs either – the images are hand-pulled prints on archival art rag paper.

Each set retails for $150 (£100) and is available to order now.

Kevin Cummins classic photography prints

Cummins


Kevin Cummins
is the former chief photographer of the NME (when it was worth reading) and a man who, in his time, has managed to be in the right place at the right time when it came to music in the 70s and 80s. And his images he shot are now available to buy as limited edition photographic prints.

You can browse the available prints at the Paul Smith online store, with the likes of Paul Weller, Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Marc Bolan and the Sex Pistols featured, along with non-music folk like Terence Stamp, Quentin Crisp and Alberrt Finney.

But we love this Bernard Sumner print. It’s a gelatin-silver photographic print, sized at 40.6 x 30cm and in an edition of 30, with the image itself capturing the New Order man in New York in 1983. Yours for £881.
