A Separate Cinema has, for over two decades, been the only archive dedicated to the art and fascinating history of African-Americans in film. Posters for many of these independently produced movies are replete with sprit, energy, brilliant color and design. Vintage black-cast film posters including Cab Calloway, Sidney Poitier, Duke Ellington and Nat King Cole. Many also feature stylized humor making them icons, both of history and art.
