stuff mondays - galerie montmartre vintage posters

More than just a way to flog a new detergent or the latest slicing-dicing gizmo, advertising posters have long been seen as a form of artwork, reflecting the time, place and social fads of when they were made.

Stocked to the brim with these artistic gems (dating all the way back to the 1880s, no less!), Melbourne's Galerie Montmartre is sitting on an historical treasure trove, and they've kindly agreed to send some goodness your way.

All true blue original posters that have been collected and restored until they're looking tip-top, if you're lucky enough to nab one of the five $50 vouchers up for grabs, you can take your pick from their bountiful booty. Just email your name and address here to enter the draw.

And while you're at it, keep your eye on the gallery's website – they've got some exciting goings-on in store!
