Join us today to discover the history of Baltimore’s Globe Poster Corporation. To advertise their upcoming shows in cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Baltimore, artists like James Brown, B.B. King and Tina Turner turned to Globe to produce eye-popping posters. We are delighted to be joined by Lori Gale, great-granddaughter of the Globe Poster founder, to tell us about the family business and show us her personal collection. Lori and her father, Duke Zimmerman, are writing a book on the Civil Rights Movement and Globe Poster to be published at the end of the year. Learn more at globeposterbook.com. Thanks for watching and we'll see you soon with another video.
This is our series called "Five Minute Histories." Every week, we’ll record a short video about a different historic place in Baltimore and post it on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
