Tim:
I think there are many archives of posters although none would hold
everything.

in New York you might try:
Museum of Modern Art
New York Public Library at Lincoln Center, Theatre Collection

Many individuals have poster collections which I bet they would be pleased
to show to someone.

But you are casting a pretty wide net, Perhaps you will need to narrow the
topic down ?

you might start in a good library or do a book search on the net and find
books of movie posters?
There's a gazillion of 'em!
