ConcertPosterArt is the concert poster and music memorabilia division of Burlington Records. We are Vermont's premier vinyl record store, featuring the area's most diverse selection of LP's and 45's and New England's largest collection of original concert posters and music memorabilia for sale. All items listed as for sale can be viewed at our retail location, located at 170 Bank Street, Burlington, Vermont. We have been serving the online concert poster community since 1997. We have over 50,000 different original concert posters, handbills, flyers, and vintage ads in our permanent personal collection and over 2000 for sale at any one time. Jazz, punk, psychedelic, country, bluegrass, jamband rock and roll, folk, soul, gospel and every genre in between.
This site represents what is undoubtedly one of the largest collections of original concert posters and handbills ever amassed, and includes thousands of pieces not documented anywhere else. Among other major collections, the archive includes the largest collection of Portland Oregon telephone pole posters in the world, going back to about 1978. The entire collection is unlikely ever to be completely databased, not only due to sheer volume, but also because the collection is in a constant state of growth. We are adding new material on a weekly basis.
Though we do stock some fillmores and silkscreens, our main focus is on those items which were actually used to advertise the concerts: telephone pole posters, punk flyers, vintage newspaper ads, etc. These official but non-merchandise ephemera pieces are typically the hardest to find as they were not items that were not produced and sold as merchandise. These items were used to advertise, on telephone poles and store windows, then often discarded or destroyed by the elements. We only carry original and officially approved material printed prior to the event advertised. Poster and music memorabilia collectors are welcome to contact us to authenticate their material. |
