How to Restore Movie Posters

Old posters may remind you of several childhood memories but it is quite difficult and requires a lot of patience and understanding to maintain them. Sometimes in spite of good maintenance, old posters tend to become damaged or worn with time. Besides movie poster collectors like you, there are institutions and university archives that want to maintain their posters in a pristine condition as it has been originally. Restoring a vintage poster is a piece of knowledge you need to be equipped with if you own a few posters. You will require a printing service, a scanner and a graphics program.

Many times, regular scanners used in homes are much smaller when compared to a regular poster. Therefore, you may need to scan your poster in sections without changing its orientation so that the scanned pieces have the right alignment. Make sure not to cause any further damage to your original poster. With the help of a cropping tool in the software of your scanner, trim each piece to only capture the details you want. Save each of these pieces as a JPEG file. Open the graphics program and create a document as the size of your original poster. Copy and paste each one of the scanned pieces on the main document to gradually start looking like your original poster. The ‘Move’ tool can be used to position images appropriately. Merge all layers into one. Use ‘cloning’ tool to remove any damages caused in the process. Save your work and get your image printed at a local professional printer.
