The collection contains over 900 leaflets for films and advertising connected to films or cinemas.

Handbill is normally used to indicate a single-sheet piece of publicity for a specific film, cinema or studio. The handbills in the collections date back to nineteenth-century advertisements for magic lantern shows and panoramas, while the other end of the period is constantly being updated to take in material for very recently released films.
