To our collector, interior designer and eBay friends worldwide:The Cuban Poster Gallery in Washington D.C. is offering a huge selection of handmade Cuban silk-screen movie posters, many of which work beautifully well together. To view all of these posters, as well as political-, cultural- and sports-related drawings from Cuba, please visit our eBay Store stores.ebay.com/CubanPosterGallery where new listings are often being posted in both the Auction and Buy It Now/Best Offer formats. The Cuban Poster Gallery appreciates your business!OUR REGULAR PRICE FOR THIS POSTER IS $349 The Cuban Poster Gallery is delighted to offer REBELDE SIN CAUSA (REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE), a hard-to-find original Cuban silk-screen poster that was designed in Havana in 2010 to salute the vintage American film, starring James Dean, Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo. (See below for a brief description of this classic 1955 film.) REBELDE SIN CAUSA was designed for a competition, sponsored by the Cuban Film Institute, that challenged Cuban designers to make a poster for any classic world film. The competition resulted in some outstanding silk-screened posters (all made in very small numbers) for films such as Cabaret, Clockwork Orange, Silence of the Lambs and Persona (the Ingmar Bergman classic). The Cuban Poster Gallery has acquired a few copies of these rarely seen posters; we invite you add them to your collection before they are gone! (Update: the Cabaret poster has sold out.) This striking 20 by 30 inch poster (a standard size, so easy and inexpensive to frame) was designed ROBERTO RAMOS (who signs his name Roberticoramos), a well-known Havana tattoo artist, costume designer and LGBTQ activist who is one of the stars of the new generation of Cuban poster artists. This 1st Edition poster was silk-screened in the Cuban Film Institute’s workshop in Havana. Another copy of this poster can be found in the permanent collection of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles. The Academy has a large collection of Cuban silkscreen posters, many of which we are offering this week on eBay. A copy of this poster was also displayed at the Academy’s 2011 exhibition of Cuban movie poster art. Notably, this poster also has been chosen for inclusion in other exhibitions worldwide, as well as in the Cuban Film Institute’s comprehensive book about Cuban poster art, titled CIUDADANO CARTEL (CITIZEN POSTER). Overall condition of this handmade poster is good. As with most Cuban silk-screened movie posters, some imperfections are possible, such as wrinkles on the white border around the main image. Buy with 100 percent confidence; posters purchased from the Cuban Poster Gallery on eBay can be returned for any reason within 30 days. Your original REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE tribute poster will be shipped FREE to U.S. addresses by USPS Ground Advantage or UPS (with delivery confirmation) in a sturdy tube. For international buyers (outside of the United States), eBay will calculate the cost of shipping and any required Customs duties and taxes. \ Summary of film: REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE is the story of a rebellious teenager played by James Dean who comes to a town, meets a girl, disobeys his parents and defies the local high school bullies. The film attempts to portray the moral decay of American youth, critique parental style and exploit the differences among generations.

DESIGNER: Roberticoramos (Roberto Ramos Mori) born 1975 MEDIUM: Silk-screen / Serigraph YEAR: 2010 SIZE: 20 x 30 inches; 51 x 76 cm ORIGIN: the ICAIC (Cuban Film Institute) silk-screen workshop in Havana, Cuba A few words about collecting Cuba’s silk-screen movie posters: For more than 60 years, the Cuban Film Institute has been designing silk-screened posters for most every movie shown on the island, whether the films originated in Cuba, the United States, Brazil, Japan or Italy. In the midst of the Cold War 1960s and 1970s, many of the subtitled foreign films shown in Cuba came from the island nation’s communist allies in the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, Vietnam and even North Korea. Unlike in the United States, where movie posters are often dominated by images of Hollywood stars, the Cubans assign a graphic artist to design an original piece of artwork for each film. These posters are widely recognized in graphic design circles as stylish works of art, handmade one color at a time and often under difficult circumstances (at various times, paint and even paper have been in short supply on the island.) Cuba’s silk-screen movie posters are nothing less than museum pieces. Examples of Cuban poster art can be found in the permanent collections of museums across the globe from the Victoria & Albert in London to the Museum of Modern Art in New York, as well as in prestigious institutions such as the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles. Adding to their collectability, Cuba’s movie posters are produced in relatively small numbers. Typically, a few hundred copies are made for each film, although the runs have been as low as 50. Responding to demand from collectors, the Cuban Film Institute has re-screened some of its more popular posters. That’s why some posters created in the 1960s and 1970s began reappearing on the Caribbean island in the 1990s and 2000s. Further adding to their collectability, many of Cuba’s vintage posters are imperiled. Although a few hundred copies may have been screened originally, relatively few have survived, due to the island’s wet and humid climate, inadequate storage facilities in Havana and improper handling in Cuba and elsewhere. To us, these survivors are rare beauties, even those with obvious flaws. We are proud to have rescued hundreds of posters from almost certain extinction by storing them in an air conditioned, acid-free environment. We at the Cuban Poster Gallery offer both 1st and 2nd Edition posters to our customers on eBay and in our Washington D.C. gallery. We consider both to be collectible, and (in response to a question we often get) all of these posters were legally imported because the U.S. government exempts artwork from its economic embargo against Cuba. While the pricier originals are favored by some collectors, the re-screens are also collectible because they were made in the same Havana workshop as the originals. Note that we never sell unauthorized reproductions that have been cranked out in print shops in the U.S. and Europe. To our eBay customers, we pledge to accurately describe the posters we list and price them fairly based on condition and scarcity. Have a question? Please don’t hesitate to contact us.
