Since 1930 Kunst und Bild (Art and Image) or KuB is one of Germany's leading publishers of postal and greeting cards. During the 1950s, the Berlin company published many film star postcards, often in black and white and with a white frame. The company still exists today but in their collection are no more film star postcards.
