Poster Mountain Inc

Today we are celebrating John's birthday! John created Poster Mountain over 3 decades ago. Over the years, he turned the small start-up into a world-renowned restoration company that has restored countless works of art from all over the world. His dedication to the business has carried it through tough times and served as the livelihood for dozens of employees and interns who have enjoyed working as part of the Poster Mountain team. Join us in wishing him a very Happy Birthday!

What a fabulous and rare one sheet sent in from our friends at Authentic Vintage Posters. https://www.authenticvintageposters.com/

Always one of my favorite Disneyland Attraction posters to get to work on. I don't see this one nearly as often as most of the others. Great colors!

An amazing transformation on this unique standee. The before photo shows what kind of damage insects are capable of. I'm delighted with how this turned out! Thanks to Gabe Carlson and Heather Coppinger, our restoration rock stars!

Another near mint Creature From The Black Lagoon six sheet finished!

Really great before and after of an original pencil and pen sketch by Marc Davis.

We also restore fine art as well such as this print by Pablo Picasso.

How is it that I've never seen this Disneyland Attraction poster before? I thought I'd seen them all.

What an extraordinary transformation on this Warhol Soup Can!

I had no idea that bones made explosives. Sent in from Antikbar

We just finished a nice batch of posters for PosterTeam.com, they will be on their way to Norway next week!

This 1900 Mucha calendar print arrived in a unique circular mat (image 1.) It didn't take us long to find out why. As seen in the second and third images, there was quite a bit of damage hiding under there. We removed it from the mat board and then linen backed it (image 3.) It was a pretty big restoration job, but as you can see in the 4th image, it has been restored to its intended glory and this rectangular print no longer needs to hide under a circular mat!

Probably the strangest thing I’ve ever been asked to conserve is this Toe Tag from a murdered Hells Angel. Jeffrey "Groover" Coffey was killed in an epic, legendary gang war bar fight in Cleveland on March 7th 1971 along with 5 other bikers. Hells Angels members traveled from all over the country to attend his funeral on March 10th 1971. 57 bikers were charged with murder. RIP Groover!
