Most often found in Cinema Trade magazines of the 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s. The two page spreads measuring 17x22 were particularly designed to be removed and used as posters by cinema managers. Very few of these trade magazines have survived and many of the adverts here are the only known British 'posters' for these titles.
