Saturday: Cuban & World Poster Art Sale + Handmade Mayan Textiles in Washington, Washington For Sale

You're invited to our Saturday sale in Washington D.C. of 300+ authentic Cuban movie and political posters, plus 100 worldwide social cause and cultural posters. ...plus two dozen gorgeous Mayan Guatemalan textiles. Our address is xxxx O Street NW in Georgetown. We'll be open from 10 am to 5 pm on Saturday (April 27).
A few words about Cuba's silk-screened movie posters: For more than 50 years the Cuban Film Institute has been designing handmade 20-by-30-inch posters for almost every movie shown on the island, domestic or foreign. So expect to see Havana-made posters for U.S. films such as Cabaret, Silence of the Lambs, the Godfather, Rebel Without A Cause, Schindler's List and Clockwork Orange.
These silk-screens are beautifully designed; copies can also be found in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles. Close to home, Georgetown University also has an impressive collection of several hundred Cuban movie posters.
Most of the Cuban silk-screens we'll be offering are priced from $79 to $129, although we'll have some rare, higher-priced posters for collectors. We'll also have a selection of Havana-designed mini posters for $22 and $35. And we'll have a special deal for collectors and gift seekers: Pick any 5 posters, get the lowest priced one FREE!

The Guatemalan textiles -- most of them hand-woven Mayan women's blouses, known as huipiles -- are priced from $39 to $339. We'll provide the dowels, so they will be ready to hang...and to make a decorative splash on your walls.
See you Saturday!
