Well... that sucks. Was that the only H1 tag on the page though?

Best Regards,

I don't think that was the cause of it, more like your title tag was the cause of it... it's far far far far too long... your prominence of your main keyword phrase is far too low.

You should try this instead: vintage movie posters, Celebrity Autographs, Memorabilia.

And put your original title text in your description meta tag instead.
