Best Patrick Nagel posters

Start with the 1987 Commemorative #11. It's a real Mirage Editions serigraph from Nagel's own era, 36 x 24 inches, unframed — the size and print quality collectors expect, and the version worth framing properly. It's my pick because it's authentic Nagel-era printing rather than a modern reproduction.

Then, depending on what you want:

• Commemorative #14 (1986) and Commemorative #15 (1986) — same era, same 36 x 24 serigraph format; pick whichever artwork you like most, #15 being the limited-edition version.
• "The Book" poster — a Mirage offset lithograph, the classic Nagel graphic to hang as-is.
• Commemorative 8 — a large 36 x 24 print if you want a bolder single image.
• Premium Matte Vertical Poster — a cheap, crisp modern print for a first poster or a gift.
• The Amazon "City Girl" print — the budget option; expect a mass-market reproduction.
• The 1990s "Pin Up" original — for a serious collector wanting genuinely vintage stock.

Tip: anything labelled serigraph or Mirage is the real deal; "canvas print" and "poster print" listings are reproductions.
