Cuban posters are finally getting very popular and
I see a large increase in serious collectors. Two years ago cuban
posters were a rarity on ebay and were bought mostly by educators
and very specialized galleries ,therefore prices were huge. I
remember a gallery with $1000 tags on posters that now sell for
less than $30. Back then you could go to Cuba and buy posters
for $1 right and left ,but now cubans know the value of posters
and the fact that supply is limited (the government is only reprinting),
their prices are increasing rapidly. Collectors prices will skyrocket
even more when the communist system changes its course,eventually.
These factors leave a very healthy road for the popularity and
investment value of collecting cuban posters.
...but we don't have enough books and the few that
were printed were very limited editions. Many collectors write
to me every week asking the same question: Where can I buy books
about cuban posters? Is my poster featured in any of the books?
because if you have a painting and it gets published in a book
or catalog it increases its popularity and value.The same happens
with posters. "Soy Cuba" and "Lucia" are 2
reprinted posters that always sell well, not only for their estetic
value but also because the images were published many times.
The books on this page are out of print and I thought
it would be a good idea to give collectors the opportunity to
check if their posters had been published. These are the ones
I have but if you know any other source please let me know so
we can share with other people.
I strongly recommmend the new book REVOLUTION:Cuban
Poster Art by Lincoln Cushing. You can buy it at Amazon.com or
Barnes&Noble.com
