Original Cuban movie posters have become highly collectible worldwide.They were made in small handmade batches of 25-250 and many were lost to insects and humidity or simply discarded or recycled by the government. Due to their scarcity, many designs are now being reproduced. I sell only original first edition vintage Cuban posters — no reproductions, ever.

Each poster is carefully packed using protective tissue paper and a double heavy-duty mailing tube to help ensure safe delivery and protect the edges in transit.

Please visit my other listings and store to see additional posters from this collection. I’m happy to combine multiple purchases in one tube whenever possible to save on shipping.

Every poster includes a signed Certificate of Authenticity.

Provenance & Authenticity

This original Cuban poster comes from a family collection begun in 1973 by my husband’s grandmother in Havana. Between 1998 and 2012, we carefully brought the collection to the United States in small, legally authorized batches due to Cuban and U.S. government regulations on the export of cultural property. Each group of posters was officially processed through the Registro Nacional de Bienes Culturales de la República de Cuba under permits issued in both my name or my husband’s name. The documentation dates from 1998–2012 and confirms legal export from Cuba.

Over the past 20+ years, I have built close relationships with artists and collectors, studied the history of Cuban graphic and poster design extensively, and developed the expertise to confidently stand behind the authenticity of every piece I offer.

Your purchase will include a signed Certificate of Authenticity issued by my gallery Art of Cuba.

Condition

I use a clear 4-grade system: Mint, Very Good, Good, and Fair.

Please review the photos carefully — I include close-up details to show condition honestly. Additional photos are always available upon request.

Mint (M): Exceptional condition for age. No tears, no significant yellowing, no creases, no paint cracking or loss. Colors strong and vibrant. (Extremely rare for vintage Cuban silkscreens.)

Very Good (VG): Light to moderate natural aging. Minor yellowing of paper. Small tears (generally under 1 inch). Light creases or soft corner bends. Small cracks in paint consistent with age. Strong, displayable image. (Most common and desirable condition for authentic 1960s–70s Cuban posters.)

Good (G): Noticeable aging and yellowing. Multiple small tears or one more visible tear. Visible creasing. Moderate paint cracking or minor flaking. May show small areas of paper loss.

Fair (F): Heavy yellowing or staining. Larger tears or edge loss. Pronounced creases or folds. Paint loss in visible areas. May require restoration.

Original Cuban posters are becoming highly collectable and because of their scarcity many are being reproduced We sell only original posters.
We use a double shipping tube and protective tissue paper to prevent the edges to get damaged.
Please check out our other 
auctions and store. If you see any other posters you like, we combine multiple items in one tube.

I WILL SEND YOU A CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY WITH EACH POSTER


This original poster belongs to a collection that was started by my husband’s grandmother in 1973 and it was brought by us to the Unites States from 1998 to 2012 in small batches, due to Cuban and U.S government restrictions on importing or exporting art from the island. Each batch was processed by the Cuban government entity Registro Nacional de Bienes Culturales de la República de Cuba that dates from 1998 to 2012 under my name and my husband’s name as permits to take the posters to the United States. I have links in my webpage with pictures of many of the receipts as proof of provenance. During more than 20 years I befriended many of the artists and collectors, read every book and article I could have my hands on and acquired the knowledge to stand by the authenticity of my collection. I will send you a Certificate of Authenticity issued by my art gallery Art of Cuba and signed by me. It will include the  Title of the poster,Year printed and the artist’s name with the image of the actual poster.
