The phantom of the inkwell and the illustrated metaphor: best poster art, 1912-1992

Artists respond to film. Focus is on original, interpretive drawings and paintings with minimal use of photographic images. Some artists are identified in the notes field.

Apologies: posters change in this database. The new ones will appear in this list, most of them looking out of place. It is beyond my control. I remove them as I find them.
