This vintage Punjabi-language poster for Alladin Da Chiragh visualizes a mythic world of jinns and magic with bold linework and dramatic flourishes. A genie rises from a smoking lamp, rendered in sketch-like red ink on aged paper. The film was supposed to be directed by M. Akram and starring Zarif but never got made due to financial issues.

Availability: Free pickup on July 29, or worldwide shipping (price excludes shipping).
