Theodoro, who was French, produced a variety of posters for trains and locomotives - this is the only known image of a non-train subject which can be found for this artist. Clearly inspired by the vogue of Art Deco, the lines in this work are clear and elegant - as Jack Rennert, the undisputed poster expert has declared:''An inspired design for the Gold Starry pen: the stylized figure uses the pens as stilts to make the point that it is ''le stylo qui marche'', which has the double meaning of ''the pen that works'', and ''the pen that walks.'' PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL OF OUR POSTERS ARE ORIGINAL - NON REPRODUCTION WORKS.
