Collector’s Guide.
-
Every ARTVERTISEMENT. is an original period advertisement, sourced from vintage publications and selected for its design, subject matter and historical significance.
They are not printed, scanned or digitally reproduced copies.
Each piece you receive is the actual vintage advertisement pictured in its listing.
-
Each ARTVERTISEMENT. is a genuine vintage advertisement, and its condition will vary with age. We carefully inspect every piece and aim to represent its true condition through the product photography and description.
Minor signs of age — such as paper wear, creases, fading or small imperfections — are part of the character and history of an original vintage advertisement.
-
Each ARTVERTISEMENT. is carefully extracted from its original publication and prepared by hand for display.
We use archival-quality, acid-free materials when mounting and presenting each piece, helping to minimise further deterioration while allowing its original character and patina to remain visible.
We don't attempt to make vintage advertisements look new. The history is part of the artwork.
-
ARTVERTISEMENTS. are available framed or unframed.
Our frames are carefully selected to complement the character of each advertisement without distracting from the artwork. Depending on the piece, framing options may include black, white, oak or walnut, with different sizes available.
All framed pieces are assembled by hand and prepared for display.
Coming soon: vintage framing.
-
Make it yours.
Depending on the piece, you can customise your ARTVERTISEMENT. with different frame finishes, mat boards and presentation options.
If you'd like something outside the available options, get in touch before purchasing and we'll see how we can further elevate your art.
-
All ARTVERTISEMENTS. are hand-crafted in Melbourne, Australia.
Unframed pieces are carefully packaged to protect the original paper during transit.
Framed pieces receive additional protective packaging to minimise the risk of damage during shipping.
We ship throughout Australia and internationally. Shipping costs calculated at check-out.
-
Because ARTVERTISEMENTS. are original, one-of-a-kind vintage pieces, all framed and customised purchases are final.
For unframed, print-only purchases, returns may be accepted within 30 days, provided the item is returned in its original, sellable condition and has not been damaged.
If your order arrives damaged, please contact us as soon as possible with photographs of the packaging and artwork so we can help resolve the issue.

Because some stories deserve more than a scroll past.
ARTVERTISEMENTS. give original pieces of advertising history a second life — preserving the artwork, design and ideas of another era while allowing them to be enjoyed again.
They're not reproductions of history. They are pieces of it.
A breath of vintage air.
Elevate your space with a piece of history.
Keep the stories alive.
All ARTVERTISEMENTS. are curated vintage advertisements, carefully preserved using archival-quality materials.
Each ARTVERTISEMENT. is an original period advertisement, hand-selected to be displayed as art - not a printed or scanned reproduction.
Every piece keeps a story alive.
