Every year, the museum selects a poster from the Moving Image Department’s Stills, Posters, and Paper Collection for conservation treatment as part of the curriculum for the L. Jeffrey Selznick School of Film Preservation. This year, an original theatrical poster for the film STORMY WEATHER (1943), a showcase for Black performers of that era, underwent a complete treatment by independent conservator Gary Albright.
