30 Amazing Retro Posters and Flyers
August 19, 2009
This week I ran into some cool retro designs for posters, fliers and brochures. I thought I would share them for my next Retrography Post. I love the style and feel of this ‘old paper look’ they all kind of have. I keep seeing the coolest gig posters and club flyers with this style. There’s some awesome typography, some propaganda influences and some really cool colors! Enjoy!
Retro style design has always been around. Yet it seems that in the last few years it really has jumped off quite a bit. There are tons off awesome typographics coming out now as well as really cool gig posters and fliers like in this post. If you have any retro designs that you'd like to share with Retrography please send them with your username to alecsince87@gmail.com.

Very nice collection of posters here.

Keep up the good work.
Really cool collection... Like almost all of them!
Fantastique, je connaissais déjà les créations de Scott Hansen, mais je découvre celles de Jonathan Haggard et de Horacio Lorente ! Merci pour cette découverte ;-)
Cool stuff there.
Saved a bunch to my collection.
Great work. Very nice use of color in the Andy Lund pieces
Horacio is a excellent designer
amazing collection.
Horacio Lorente kicks ass!
Very Nice Collection of Retro work, its funny but I used to think that Scott Hansen was the king of retro work, and that anyone who tried it was copying his style.
I looked at some old design work from the time 60's and 70's and they are very similar to what Scott and the others are producing so I guess we all get inspiration and no one can claim this retro style for there own.
Awesome Stuff
there's something about the choice of colors on those retro posters that make them all kinda look alike. Nevertheless a timeless collection!
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!
The Vintage/Retro is the trendiest thing going right now but.....damn if it doesn't look cool as hell
Very ice collection.
fifth one down is my favorite

Good finds. Straight to the inspiration folder!
WOW!
Love Scott Hansens and Jonathan Haggards work!
????? love that :)
You're missing ISO50. He does these posters too, and a lot better I might add ;)
I so want the Dark Sea! It's awesome, thx for posting ;)
Thanks for inspiration
Hey, love your blog and its design and your choices, and your English is GREAT! Teeny complaint: Extremely dark gray type on a black field is so very artsy and cool, but hard to read and easy to overlook entirely. (I'm talking about, say, the line under the email field right here on this form, that says "The content of this field is private..." It's so private that I didn't see it when I read the form, only when I filled it.)
Take care and keep up the good work!
SIMPLY GREAT
Eighth one down is my favorite. Lovely set, but if you could find more in the line of the 8th (which is REALLY retro), that would be excellent.
wow ... cool posters! much inspiring! thanks for that ... :)
Magnificent poster designs...
Their neat but their not retro. As in not created before 1970
@wink
ISO50 is Scott Hansen's blog.
A beautiful and inspiration collection. Thanks kindly for posting these. Regards, John Dickinson
Loving it!
Takes me back to my youth.
i LOVE these. My favorite is the second to last one, "The Dark Sea."
Man, these are all amazing...
I especially like this one
