Post No Bills (French: Défense d'afficher) is an 1896 French short black-and-white silent comedy film, directed by Georges Méliès, featuring two bill-posters squabbling over a poorly guarded wall. The film, one of Méliès' early works, was long thought lost, but was recovered in 2004. It is number 15 on the Star Films catalog. Post No Bills is 74 seconds long. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
