I suspect I will never meet Mickey Ross. We are separated by 2,700 miles between our respected coastal residences. That said, I have found Mickey and his staff at The Ross Art Group to be trusting and forthright in ways that for me were refreshing given my need to transact business both over the phone and via e-mail.
Mickey and his staff are well versed in vintage poster art. They are informed and exacting in what they sell and I found each of them to be candid and plainspoken about the pieces that were of interest to me. Every detail from authentication to transportation were clearly discussed and price seemed both reasonable and fair.
To be honest, I am a rube when it comes to art. I know what I like based on sight and I trust a seller to be straightforward and honest with me when it comes to product, history and cost.

Upon inspection, he emailed me to inform me that a few of the posters had some discoloration that he wasn’t able to spot in the original photos, but instead of renegotiating the price while he had the clear advantage, he sent a check for the full agreed amount which I received 2 days later!! Mickey and the Ross Art Group more than earned my trust, business, and...
Read moreThis is the most fantastic and well stocked vintage poster gallery I’ve been to in the country. The owner, Mickey Ross, is a gentleman and scholar. Mickey’s vast knowledge in the history of posters, advertisements, etc. makes the process of purchasing one of his beautiful pieces a fun and exciting adventure taking you back in time. I purchased four posters in total and Mickey was extremely fair with his pricing. He cares about his customers and provides you with a perfectly preserved and clean product. No matter the size of the order, Ross Art treats every customer with dignity and respect. They spend the necessary time with all clients to make sure you’re getting the best available poster for your needs. I’ve sent friends and family over to Ross Art and will continue to do so. I look forward to doing more business with this...
