Mercury Posters is a poster and art print shop just off Monroe Avenue, near Starbucks and Plum House Japanese. Carries a wide variety of new and vintage posters, artwork, postcards and the like. Offers traditional framing service as well as several options of Plak-mount. Subject matter is just about anything, from very new movie and music posters to very vintage domestic and foreign stuff.

Owned by Jim Malley, son of the gentleman who used to own the Highland Park Diner (Bob Malley). The Malley family also used to run Donuts Delight at Culver Road and Norton. Jim is almost always there, knows his stuff, and is fun to talk to. Jim also occasionally purchases interesting collections of vintage poster art. When you visit, say hello to the birds, Lucy and Rocky.

It can be hard to find things in the crowded shop, if you have specific favorite genre/artist/style etc be sure to talk to him. His prices always seem reasonable and he's done a great job with framing/mounting for us dozens of times. —DottieHoffmann

I bought some great posters there and he did a really nice job framing some posters for me as well. —MrRochester

Jim got it for me and framed it beautifully for me. No need to go anywhere else and I don't! —NewtonNola
