Black cinema cover from the US




I received this letter from California in October 2008. Apart from four self-adhesives definitives: navajo jewelry (2004) and the tricolor star (2002), it features two self-adhesives stamps from the July 2008 series of five stamps depicting posters to rather obscure gems of the American black cinema: short musical "Caldonia" (1945) by Louis Jordan and his band playing four of their songs, and the silent "The Sport of the Gods" (1921) - "a true to life story of action, thrills and heart interest with an all-star cast of colored artists".
Thank you S. for this interesting cover!
