February is Black History Month and Posteropolis is marking it by spotlighting posters and lobby cards featuring African-Americans.
Among our latest acquisitions in this category is an Argentine 1-sheet for Valley of Peace (aka Sergeant Jim), starring John Kitzmiller. Kitzmiller was an American serviceman who stayed on in Italy after World War II and became a movie actor. He eventually won the Best Actor award at the 1957 Cannes Film Festival for his performance in this film, the first black actor to receive the honor. To see our full selection of 30 Black Cast posters and lobbies, please go the website and click on the link for African-American Film Posters.
