BABY JANE, CINEMA UNDER THE STARS AND THE MAN WHO DREW HOLLY & BOND
May 2017 Original Vintage Movie Posters
Dear Friends & Movie Lovers-
It was such a nice surprise to pick up the April edition of Vanity Fair and find a lengthy profile of the great illustrator/artist Robert McGinnis. Althoughmovie postershave a unique and significant place in our pop culture history, most of the artists behind the posters have worked in relative obscurity, even those whose work is showcased at the Film Art Gallery. Kudos to VF for giving the 91 year-old McGinnis such a nice tribute. If you haven't read the article, do yourself a favor and check it out.

We're less than two weeks away from the first Cinespia at Hollywood Forever Cemetery Screening of the summer (CHINATOWN), and the entire lineup for May & June has been announced. There's definitely something for everyone, from THE WIZARD OF OZ to BOOGIE NIGHTS. Hitchcock's NORTH BY NORTHWEST will be screening on May 27; you can get tickets here and take a look at our posters for that classic film here.
And..
The highly-publicized FX series "Feud" - about the relationship/rivalry between Hollywood royalty Bette Davis and Joan Crawford - has just ended, and it stirred up a great deal of interest in both actresses and the classic thriller in which they co-starred.

Finally - we've just uploaded 70 new acquisitions to the site, including:
