Colorful posters: saturated ink, on purpose
Before colour was a lifestyle, it was a selling tool. Posters were printed in four or five flat inks because that was what a press could run, and the limitation produced images that shout from across a room without a single gradient. That is still the most reliable way to brighten a wall: not a photograph with the saturation pushed up, but a design built out of flat areas.

How to put colour on a wall without wrecking it
One is a statement, two are a pair, five are a mess — unless the five share a palette. The rule that saves most walls is to let a single poster carry the colour and keep everything around it quiet: white paint, wood, one plant, nothing else framed.
If you want more than one, pick them by the dominant hue rather than by subject. Three prints built on red-orange will read as a collection even when one is a car race and another is a film bill; three prints in unrelated bright hues will read as clutter no matter how good each one is.
Frames change the colour
A black frame raises contrast and makes flat ink look harder, which suits the advertising and film sheets. A thin oak frame softens everything and is the better choice for the travel and food posters. A wide white mount is the third option, and the one that lets a very loud print sit in a calm room without dominating it.
Keep the poster out of direct sun: flat areas of ink fade evenly, and an evenly faded poster looks like a printing error rather than an old print. For a quieter palette with the same era, see travel; for the concert side, music; if you are choosing a colour to build a room around, start from the colour index.
