Cotton Comes to Harlem – Vintage T Shirt

Celebrate a cornerstone of 1970s Black cinema with this bold tribute to Cotton Comes to Harlem. Featuring the original movie poster art, this design brings the raw energy, sharp wit, and streetwise style of the blaxploitation era front and center.

Ossie Davis’s directorial debut, this cult classic follows detectives Gravedigger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson through Harlem’s gritty underbelly in a hunt for justice, revolution, and a missing $87,000. The poster’s explosive visuals and bold typography capture the film’s chaotic charm and cultural impact — a statement piece for fans of retro film, Black cinema history, and unapologetic storytelling.

Wear the legacy. Honor the genre. Bring Harlem heat wherever you go.
