About The Poster:

This poster is a pure delight - not only the delight on the face of the young cowboy but in the subject itself which showing the little cowboy riding and smoking at the same time!

Vincent was for many years an illustrator for humor and fashion magazines and didn’t begin creating posters until his forties. Once he did, however, he was most prolific. Along with his many automobile posters, especially notable are his posters for the Bon Marche department store which he designed between 1925 and 1932. All combine humor and elegance and usually feature a svelte, fashionable woman in the sleek new styles of the day. This poster is in excellent condition and was recently linen backed.

Would look beautiful framed in any living room or office! less
