I'm not sure which board to post this on so forgive me if this is the wrong one. lol. The Triton Gallery website has killer shipping prices and I was wondering if there are any websites where you could get the posters for less money? Thanks.

I don't know where you live, but at the Broadway flea market each fall there is a huge selection of posters...very cheap!

You could also try eBay.

Sometimes broadwaynewyork.com has some in their bargin bin. Probably not what your looking for, though. It might be worth a try.

I agree with NativeNewYorker... I have gotten some classic and rare posters at the Broadway Flea Market for CHEAP!

Very cool. Thanks for the help. I live 40 minutes from NYC so it's not bad. What is the Broadway Flea Market? It sounds interesting.

The Broadway Flea Market & Grand Auction is usually held on one of the last Sundays in September. This years date has not been announced yet. It usually runs from 10am - 7pm in Shubert Alley and West 44th Street. Casts and company members of dozens of shows are joined by theatrical unions and guilds, producing organizations, local merchants, and many other groups to sell costume pieces, autographs, original scripts, rare photographs, and so much more. The event also includes the Celebrity Table, where celebrities gather throughout the day to sign autographs and pose for photos in exchange for donations. The highlight of the Flea Market is the Grand Auction, in which singular items and opportunities such as walk-on roles in Broadway shows, television programs and films are available to the highest bidder. It is a great day! Keep checking www.bcefa.org for this years date!

nodaybut2day2007 - to answer your question, the only RENT windowcard that is in print now is the OBC. It was not made for many years, but just recently was re-released a few months ago. Other RENT windowcards do excist, you just wont find them for sale at the shows theatre or in any NY gift shops. Triton Gallery offers photo reproductions of all of the RENT posters, but they charge $125 EACH!!! My best bet would be to keep checking Ebay... every once and a while, a non-OBC one appears. I have seen the Joey Fatone poster, the tour poster and even the London RENT poster for sale on Ebay. Check it out.
