This wonderful BFI book charts the history of British film posters, from late Victorian variety/thestrical posters, through hand painted works right up to the arrival of Desk Top Publishing and contemporary films.

British Film Posters is the first complete history of the subject ever published, covering every aspect of design, printing and display, and including detailed biographies of all the major artists.

The overall theme of the book is that such 'vintage' film posters represent a significant and coherent movement in British popular art of the 20th century, which has up to now remained completely overlooked and undocumented. A great coffee table book and essential reading for anyone interested in British Cinema and Graphic Design.
