Ace Gallery first open its doors in Los Angeles in 1967, and was responsible for organizing early solo shows for such artists as Andy Warhol, Sam Francis and Robert Rauschenberg. Despite the numerous legal entanglements of the gallery's former owner, Douglas Chrismas, Ace has managed to remain relevant for decades, helping support and launch careers for such artists as Mary Corse, Michael Heizer and Tim Hawkinson.

The November 3 auction, the first in a series, will feature signed and unsigned vintage offset lithograph posters from such artists as Warhol, Rauschenberg and Francis, as well as many other artists spanning 50 years including Carl Andre, Roy Lichtenstein, Charles Fine, The Date Farmers and Dennis Hopper to name a few.

According to ThreeSixty President, Jeff Tanenbaum, "This sale has been quite an undertaking as we've discovered treasure troves of collectible signed posters ideal for collectors, as well as thousands of quality posters other galleries and resellers can purchase for years of profitable resale."
