Custom Posters and Cheap Poster Printing

What size is a cheap poster print?

Poster print sizes vary depending on their use. For cheap poster printing in smaller sizes, order 11×17 posters, 12×18 or 13×19. For larger poster print sizes, 24×36 is very common. For example, if you had rock-band or pop-star posters on your bedroom wall as a teenager, these were probably 24″x36″ (or 2ft x 3ft).

Larger sizes, such as 36×48 or longer, are typically used for window advertisements, wall graphics and other public displays, where the extra size improves visibility from a distance or through busy crowds.

What size poster is a 24×36 print?

Check out the image above to see this size example in context. Most “full size” posters that you purchase at retail businesses (like record stores) are 24×36″, or 2ft x 3ft. This is a great size that lends itself well to a wide range of uses. At a 2:3 aspect ratio, these poster-size prints fit perfectly on surfaces from your business’s front door to your kid’s dorm-room wall. Big enough to be seen at a distance, small enough to fit most spaces.

Is custom poster printing affordable?

Do you print mounted posters?

We do not offer poster mounting due to the difficulty of shipping these products across the country safely without bending or denting. But we do offer self-adhesive posters, which makes the process of mounting posters yourself much simpler and cleaner than other options, such as glue sticks or spray-on adhesives. All large format posters come shipped in tubes. Depending on the size and quantity, these tubes may be inserted inside a shipping a box or taped together with packing tape to reduce shipping costs.

How do you hang posters?

There are many ways to hang your custom printed posters. The method you use will depend on what their purpose is, where you’re hanging them and on what kind of surface. For example, 11×17 posters for concerts and other live events are commonly hung in windows for coffee shops, boutiques and record stores. These can be hung easily with double-sided clear tape, or with regular tape by wrapping individual strips into ring-shaped loops with the sticky side facing out.

Self adhesive posters are a great option for mounting large posters semi-permanently in shop windows, convention booths and other display spaces.

Many companies manufacture specific products for hanging posters safely on other surfaces, such as drywall or wood. Choose one that’s both long-lasting and residue-free to avoid marking up your walls.

Can I get a proof of my poster?

If you’d like a digital proof for free, please request this in the Job Notes. Hard copy (printed) proofs of posters can be chosen on the order form. For smaller sizes (up to 13×19″), the cost is $25 plus $0.10 per page/original. This includes 2-day shipping or faster. Due to the higher cost of goods, proof prices for large-format posters will vary depending on the size, and in some cases it will cost less to simply order 1 poster.
