UK Quad Poster Grading

Grading System for our Vintage UK Quad Cinema Posters

Grade A – Very Good Condition

• Posters in Grade A are in very good condition for their age but may show light signs of handling.
• Minor edge wear, small creases, or pinholes may be present, but there are no major flaws like large tears or significant stains.
• Colours are generally strong, though slight fading may be evident due to age.
• Perfect for collectors looking for well-preserved posters that retain their original appeal despite minor imperfections.

Grade B – Good Condition

• Posters in Grade B show moderate signs of age and wear but are still in good, displayable condition.
• There may be small tears along the edges, some creasing, or light discoloration.
• More noticeable pinholes, surface wear, or minor repairs could be present, but the artwork is still largely intact.
• Suitable for collectors who appreciate vintage posters with a bit of character and history, reflecting their age and use.

Grade C – Fair Condition

• Posters in Grade C show significant signs of wear and aging.
• You may find noticeable tears, heavier creases, fading, or stains that affect the overall appearance.
• Pinholes, tape marks, or more obvious repairs are common, with possible sections that have been restored or are missing.
• Despite the wear, these posters remain valuable as historical items but are best suited for those prioritizing rarity over condition.
