Glam Up Your Décor with Vintage Movie Memorabilia for a Golden Age of Hollywood Theme

When it comes to home theater décor, movie memorabilia is a no-brainer. Movie posters, Hollywood memorabilia and the stray TV show poster here and there – they’re a natural fit with a room designed for audio and visual entertainment. There’s so much available out there, though, that it’s easy to get overwhelmed when trying to pick and choose. From action movies to big screen Westerns, there’s absolutely something for everyone available on the movie collectibles market. Why not let Hollywood’s Golden Era guide your decorating aesthetic and turn your home theater into an homage to the glam and glitz of classic Hollywood films?
Classic Hollywood Memorabilia
Pick a handful of signed classic movie posters, framed to show them off to their best effect. You can stick with one genre or spread your taste around. Theater cards and lobby cards are fairly widely available, and many of them bear the signatures of the stars. Celebrate the era of Breakfast at Tiffany’s and The Seven Year Itch with iconic movie posters and celebrity autographs on publicity stills and photos of such major glam stars as Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart and Spencer Tracy.
Celebrate the Glamour
Not sure which classic movies should find a place on your walls? Here’s a list of some of the most glamorous movies of all time to help you make your choice.
Gone With the Wind
Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh brought Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara to the Silver Screen with all of their character foibles and excesses intact. As one of the most famous and loved movies of all time, you’ll find quite a lot of GWTW movie memorabilia available, from framed movie posters and theater cards to photos and classic movie scenes. Play it big with a framed and matted collection of Gone with the Wind laser engraved celebrity autographs along with publicity photos of all the stars.
The African Queen
Glamorous Katherine Hepburn stayed classy even when facing the rigors of an African voyage with riverboat captain, Humphrey Bogart. The publicity movie poster is still a stunning piece of movie memorabilia that shows the two stars in all their Technicolor glory. They deserve a place of honor on any wall of Hollywood legends.
Casablanca
Bogey and Bergman lit up the screen in Casablanca, cementing both stars as legends. Here’s looking at you, kid, for having the good taste to hang the framed and matted movie poster on the wall of your home theater.
Classic movie collectibles are the ideal movie memorabilia to bring a touch of real movie glamor to your new home theater. Go on – glitz up your home theater décor with some of the classiest leading ladies and men of the Golden Era.
