Book Description

August 1, 2000
Sultry bandidas, gut-busting cmicos, and terrifying monstruos all make an appearance in these reproductions of movie posters from Mexico's Golden Age of Cinema. The vivid postcards from the 1930s to the 1950s give film buffs a great seat from which to enjoy Cine Mexicano's art deco styling and pulp fiction sensationalism. Que glamoroso!

5.0 out of 5 stars A trash movie masterpiece, a cult work of art !!!, June 20, 2001
This review is from: Cine Mexicano (Cards)
This collection of 40 postcards is a unique collection of the best "trash" Mexican movies posters from the 30's to the 50's. More than a historical collection for film lovers, the illutration art work of the posters itself is an excellent font of inspiration for today artists and art directors. This collection also come in a wonderfully produced hard cover box. And indispesable item for Movie, alternative culture,and good quality Pulp Art lovers. I bought two for myself, no doubt it will became a collectors item. Check also the book version for a more complete set of images !
