The golden age of 1950s sci-fi poster art

The 1950s were scared of everything: the bomb, the space race, the neighbors. Hollywood turned those fears into fast, cheap and wildly entertaining science fiction, and the posters sold each film harder than the film could sell itself. Bug-eyed aliens, screaming heroines, ray guns and saucers raining down on cities. The art promised the end of the world for the price of a ticket.

How to build a 1950s sci-fi gallery wall

Mix one or two large prints (18x24 or 24x36) with a row of 11x17s, and use one frame color across the wall to tie the different art styles together. Black Oak suits the dark backgrounds of most 1950s posters. Natural Oak gives a warmer, mid-century look.
