1987 Original Cuban Movie Poster MOCKUP. Painting.Chaplin Sneaker.Unique Art

Description: This lot includes the original 1987 movie poster MOCKUP that the artist created to be printed on paper and make the silkscreen posters. The mockup or boceto is painted on artistic board and provides the original artwork for a Cuban poster. A unique piece of poster history. Mockup measures 8x12 inches. The reverse has the color instructions for the printmaker. In this case 7 color were used. It was also titled and signed by Eduardo Muñoz Bachs in 1987. Notice that the artist used some cutout name in the place where the printmaker would choose any font that he liked. Some artists, like Muñoz Bachs, would make the fonts as a part of his art(drawing unique adorned fonts) so printmakers couldn't choose for him. THE LAST PICTURE IS to show the viewer how the final poster looked like. I found a copy published in a book. No poster or the book is included in this lot, just the original painting. This original poster belongs to an important collection initiated by my husband's grandmother in 1973. The collection was gradually transported to the United States between 1998 and 2012, adhering to stringent Cuban and U.S. government regulations regarding the import and export of art from the island. Each batch of posters was meticulously processed by the Registro Nacional de Bienes Culturales de la República de Cuba, with permits issued under my name and my husband's name, ensuring their legal transfer. The posters have been carefully preserved, kept flat in a temperature-controlled room since they left Cuba. However, due to the humid and hot climate of the island, as well as careless handling and poor storage over the years, some posters may exhibit minor flaws such as small border tears, cracks in the silkscreen paint, pinhole bug bites, and water stains. These imperfections are common in Cuban posters from the 60s and 70s. For more information about the history of Cuban posters and his artists, visit my page at artofcuba.com.
