About Film on Paper
Film on Paper is an online archive of original film posters, programmes, and other paper-based film materials. It is built from the collection of one owner, Eddie Shannon, and the listings include posters from the UK, USA, Japan, Thailand, and other countries. The meta description describes the archive as over 2,000 items.
The archive can be browsed and filtered, and search covers both the poster collection and the blog. Photos show the physical posters and paper ephemera rather than digital copies. The site was created so the collection could be viewed without repeatedly handling the posters, and it is also intended as a reference for collectors, designers, illustrators, and film fans. Use of the photographs and text is restricted: they may not be used for commercial purposes, and credit is requested for non-commercial use. Pricing is not stated.
