Need some design advice, not jewelry related

Recently painted the living room, found this great framed advertisement today at a vintage shop. The wall is pretty large so I will need to put something next to or around this picture. Any suggestions?

Cool framed old print advertisement!

Not sure of its dimensions, nor the size of the wall, but maybe pair it with a mirror like this (37.5"H x 24"W)?

or do a cluster of smaller mirrors, like this 11" ceramic mirror?

I'd probably check out the local thrift stores to see if they have any old mirrors ... if there's a little aging to it, even better perhaps

Oh I like that mirror idea a lot, I could see having an arrangement of small vintage mirrors around it to beef it up.

Thanks so much for the suggestion @marymm!

Maybe find a few more. They are all over once you start looking in the vintage shops. You wont find the same sizes, so you can arrange them casually.
Or use interesting smaller mirrors in the same way. The mirror idea is great @marymm

@stracci2000, I will have to keep an eye out. My husband told me I like the strangest things lol! I should have told him it must be true since I like him!

This poster is not strange at all!
Tell him that vintage/antique advertising posters are a big deal!
Doesn't he watch the Antiques Roadshow with you?

Eh, he just has different ideas about cool. To him Transformers are cool.

We haven’t watched the Roadshow in a long time, we would have to stream it since we don’t have cable.

I don't have cable, either!
I just watch it on our local PBS station.
