Thanks Dale,

I have been looking into posters made at this time period (in an effort to find out more about the popular processes of the day) and came across a very informative article entitled "The Great Poster Movement (A General History of Posters)" that I believe you would enjoy.

Please see,

Yaneff are dealers in original vintage posters and present a very interesting web site.

Here is a video they have produced highlighting much of what the linked article covers:

Slow as I am to get around to things, I checked out the video and the link you suggested Michael. Both were well worth the time.

Printmaking techniques such as lithography really is something to behold. Posters communicate effectively and quite aesthetically at times. Sometimes it's the simplicity in the designs that really reaches out and catches a person's eye. At other times, it's the bold usage of colors that siezes our attention. Either way, we get to enjoy a visual treat. Thanks for sharing!
