What a work of art these posters are!
I love silent movies. Some of the stories are pretty good. I’d like to see a poster of this style for the recently released silent movie “The Artist”.
I love the men in lipstick and eyeliner. Especially Douglas Fairbanks as ‘The Goucho’. Makeup is for everyone!
