Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Anyone know a good website to buy vintage ski posters,they old type ones advertising resorts (normally made by the travel/railway companies) pre-war and 1950's type.

Have tried search engines,but not really found anywhere decent.

Not originals,prints will do

Ski museum in St Anton used to have nice Hannes Schneider poster.

You could get nice modern ski posters by removing them from Austrian trains. Screwdriver and appropriate tools may be required.

LIAMJ, Art.com has some very good ones. Plus do a search on snowHeads there was a couple of threads on this very subject a couple of months ago.
Also if you are in or near Bourg St Maurice the Weldom store (near Super U) has a good stock of posters and ski related decor.

I know this site has had good vintage posters in the past, (a lot with a Canadian Rocky Mountain theme) but they seem to rotate a lot of their stock. See: https://cartolina.com/collections/posters

Not posters as such but the Art of Skiing by Jenny de Gex is a great chalet coffee table book. Lots of evocative posters and some short histories.
