You might try this web site:

http://www.vertigogalleries.com/

I haven't dealt with them myself, but they have a nice selection of original vintage movie posters and lobby cards.

LDoodle,

If you are looking for poster replicas, then any of the sites mentioned above will sell them to you, but for a price. However, if you are talking about proper, original UK and US Quad cinema posters, that you and I see in the main cinema entrances, then you're best bet is to approach a cinema individually, and just be polite but persistant.

A good method, I have found that works in the past, is to offer a small payment, but ask that they give the money to a charity.

Anyone can buy mass-produced, copies from websites and shops, but it's much better getting hold of the original versions!

I was actually looking for this one or this one, and if at all possible, signed, to fill an empty wall i've got.

I know either is gonna be hard to find.
