L'Affiche De Cinema De 1895 A 1946 (literally translates to "The Cinema Poster From 1895 To 1946"), the 1946 French museum poster promoting the very first historic art exhibit of movie posters which took place from June to August in Paris, France (there were no exhibitions of movie posters in the United States that I am aware of until the 1980s). Note that this poster includes recreated art of the 1895 French poster, Cinematographe Lumiere, which shows an audience watching the very first comedy movie ever made, "Watering the Gardner", which had art by Auzolle. Note that the art in this poster is signed "Rojac d'apres Auzolle", which means that French artist Roger Jacquier edited the original French Cinematographe Lumiere poster by Auzolle.
Artist: Roger Jacquier d'apres Auzolle
