New Framed Pieces at the Antique Centre Today

We have been busy hanging some new pieces on the wall today at the Woolloongabba Antique Centre. A really different 'Doors' concert poster advertising tickets selling from $2.60 to $3.50 hung in the centre of our wall with the funky atomic wallpaper.


A giant (pardon the pun) 'Attack of the 50 Foot Woman' poster measures 120cm x 40cms hung with a great retro 'Faster Pussycat!Kill! Kill!' poster

We have some fabulous Batman(Adam West) and Robin(Burt Ward) autographs mounted with photos ready to frame.

Rene Gruau Vogue cover art

This is no April fool! Stunning Vogue cover art from April 1st 1954 - photo by Blumenfeld with Givenchy sleeveless sketch by Rene Gruau.

Christian Dior by Gruau

Just unearthed this beauty - a real French gem. Original Christian Dior Ad by my favourite artist Rene Gruau. Simple and sophisticated in the Gruau style - tres chic!

Rene Gruau - Vintage Haute Couture Prints

1954 - Vintage Vogue

Here are 2 excellent vintage Haute Couture prints by the master - Rene Gruau. Both show his trademark black outline and bare the Gruau "G" and "star" signature. As a fan of his work - these 2 exciting vintage prints are wonderful additions to the collection. Enjoy the style.

Vintage French CHANEL Ads

Here are some great pure Vintage French Chanel perfume Ads from the late 1940's. A classic and "timeless" design. Chanel used very similar art & design for their ads from this period right thru to the 1970's - i suppose the product simply speaks for itself!

Timeless & Classic, simple & very famous, and if something works - why fix it!

How sweet are these

Wonderful and very sweet original Childrens clothing Ads from the 1950's. Lovely and very cute artwork, perfect for a nursery or a childs room - Retro decorations you wont find everywhere. See more of these beautiful Retro Ads in Shop 32 at the WAC and in our Ebay store.

Esquire Calendar Girls

Vintage Calendars are still in demand. These great Esquire pin-up girls look as good now as they did 60 years ago. With beautiful art by Al Moore they take us back to a time of a bygone era. The tease of a scantily clad maiden. Totally original & totally vintage. A great and very unique gift idea too! Better than a birthday card, showing the whole month of someones birth year maybe - say a 60th birthday gift? Then you have found Miss November 1950! We have most years & months covered (or uncovered!) somewhere.
