The Great Dictator

I stumbled across this French poster and thought it was so cool, I had to share it. It's for the 1940 comedy The Great Dictator, which was the first major picture to satirize Nazis and Hitler. I'm in love with this poster; not only is the style unmistakably French, but I simply adore the red and black scheme, comic bookish composition, and texture. I'd love to see someone make an ATC with this!

    What a beautiful blog you have! And I love the music, too. Your style is fantastic, and I plan to visit again and read more (and ogle the gorgeous vintage art, of course)! Sincerely, A New Visitor :-)
