A color plate from an exquisite book called Les Programmes Illustres, by Ernest Maindron, published in 1897, by Librairie Nilsson-Per Lamm, Paris purchased at auction, and filled with the most unbelievably detailed and remarkable works of art we have seen... granted we are biased and truly moved by works from this period, by truly, these are gems, in remarkable, mint condition, and more than 100 years old. The auction catalog reads: '' ''I often ask myself what they, the curious of the year 2000, will think of us, whom we are cut off from by a century of dreadful events; them, knowing that which we don''t yet know and that we nearly suspect, what will they say of our old frivolity with all that has passed? Won''t they pity us, like we today have pity for the aristocratic society whose ancient prints we refer to with carelessness and levity?'' Thus mused Pierre Veber in his prefacing comments for the Programmes Illustres, a hardcover compendium of some of the most beautiful menus, invitations, business cards and announcements of the Belle Epoque. Little could he have known how off the mark his thoughts were, as today we look back at the virtuosity these posterists displayed with the limited technology of the time.'' (Rennert) Each sheet is 9.25 x 12.5 inches, and the images on the sheet vary - this one, by Roubille , measures 4 x 9.25 and was evidently a suggested programme for a theater event.

The Greatest Mother in the World/Red Cross ARTIST: A E Foringer Alonzo Earl Foringer was a mural painter and illustrator. Born in Kaylor, Amstrong County Pennsylvania on  More »

The Greatest Mother in the World/Red Cross ARTIST: A E Foringer Alonzo Earl Foringer was a mural painter and illustrator. Born in Kaylor, Amstrong County Pennsylvania on February 1, 1878. Mr. Foringer was a student of H.S. Stevenson in Pittsburgh, Blashfield and Mobrey in New York. This poster has been cited by both military and feminist writers - clearly for different reasons! - and is the image most closely associated with the artist. In a very pale palette Foringer manages to convey many of the same emotions which French artists and posterists of the same time period were capable of. Originally produced in 1918, we believe this poster is from a later printing, probably in the ''20''s or ''30s. This is a classic image and is in many museum collections as well as in the Red Cross collection of posters. Signed in the bottom right hand corner. Professionally linen backed, purchased in Europe, this poster measures 28 x 41 inches, and sells for $900. PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF OUR POSTERS ARE ORIGINAL, NON REPRODUCTION, VINTAGE PIECES.

French Health Poster from 1938 published by the Ministere de la Sante Publique (The Minister of Public Health) - Nous Pouvons Suprimer la Tuberculose (We can keep Tuberculosis under control), Achetez le nouveau Timbre Antituberculeux (Buy the new anti-TB stamp) - 1938. Internet research indicates that in the 1920s and 30''s ephemera such as booklets, bookmarks, advertisements and brochures stressing the importance of fresh air, sunshine, adequate nourishment and sufficient rest were issued by governments across Europe, but most particularly by the French (who always seem by be particularly concerned with germs). Annual Christmas seal campaigns in North America and Europe were regularly responsible for newly-minted posters and seals; they continue today. This is a wonderful poster -unlike some of the other health posters issued by the same Ministry (notably for syphilis) which were frightening in the extreme - it is spritely and happy and makes one think healthy thoughts. Poster is in excellent condition, was recently professionally lined on linen, and shows absolutely no signs of aging. It measures 47.5 x 31.5 inches. It will be shipped rolled in a poster tube. All of our posters, prints an pochoirs are authentic, vintage items. Please check back frequently, as we add items on an almost daily basis.
