''What a playful piece of Americana. This uncredited designer obviously had a working knowledge of Mid-Western winters (the poster was printed in Eastern Ohio) and was well aware of the less-than-cheerful attitude these prolonged periods of cold can produce. So, instead of trying to sex things up or provide something explosive inspired by the product''s name, he sets down an animated snowman partaking in a bit of frosty tow- behind skiing, an activity that''s only possible because of the anti-freezing power produced by Super-Pyro. It''s lighthearted, fanciful and just the tiniest bit mischievous, qualities that will go a long way towards attracting a consumer smack-dab in the middle of an unrelentingly frigid season.'' (Rennert) Measures approx. 51 x 34 inches, with grommets at the corners, in A- condition (obvious folds) and printed on canvas. Produced by John Igelstroem in Massillon Ohio USA. We love this piece - partially because we live in Montreal and have to love winter (even if grudgingly!) - but also because it reminds us of Frosty the snowman, of kids playing tow behind with city-buses, of our never-ending winters... this piece would look great in a country house, in a city house, in a dorm, restaurant, bar... just about anywhere. We will be happy to ship it worldwide - please note that the shipping costs noted below are for surface shipping - expedited shipping is available at an additional cost.

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 Louis Oury as a cover for the Programmes Illustre is approx. 6.5 x 8.5 inches. The colors are immaculate and bright and the piece would frame up beautifully. (So well received was this cover that it was used for 5 separate issues of the magazine. Thus, we have 5 copies of the same illustration) PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF OUR POSTERS ARE ORIGINAL, NON REPRODUCTION, VINTAGE PIECES.
