The Decorum Poster, entitled "Tip of the Wings" (an aeronautical salute), was created in 1987 as Decorum's commemorative gesture to the 50-year anniversary celebration of the completion of the Golden Gate Bridge in 1937. Decorum was a splendid Art Deco Emporium on Market Street at the time (it's slightly less splendid now, operating out of a Vallejo warehouse; c’est la vie).
The Decorum Poster features two quintessential Art Deco icons -- the 23-piece German airplane cocktail shaker and the Golden Gate Bridge. In full color, and boasting a hand-tinted, oil-colored black and white photo (for that "old time" effect), "Tip of the Wings" was run off by the finest old-fashioned printing shop in San Francisco, on heavy paper stock and with exceptional precision and excellence of color. It measures 16 1/2 by 21 inches.
A “must have” for the nostalgic Decorum client, admirers of the German cocktail shaker, Golden Gate Bridge enthusiasts, and Lovers of Beauty.
