The Library's movie posters
also paper the walls of the newly
refurbished Paramount Theater in
Brooklyn
Center, thanks, in part, to
the efforts of
President
Steinberg. Only duplicate copies of Paramount
Pictures movie titles were picked and then placed in secure frames.
Very recently, the rest of the Paramount duplicates were also sent to
be framed. There is also the exciting possibility of movie poster
exhibits animating one of the
Tilles Center's
rooms. Movie buffs,
please watch for coming attractions.
