Description

Posters originated in Paris in the late 1800's, as an eye-catching way to advertise things like food, liquor, travel, products or a show.  These beautiful well designed lithographs, many of which are stone lithographs, were meant to be displayed for a few weeks then discarded.  Few survive in good condition today.  We are proud to offer a substantial collection of some of the finest graphic art from the last 120 years.  Our pieces are all linen backed to museum standards to preserve and protect them.  Come see this extraordinary collection of original posters on sale for two days only!  Friday and Saturday. Oct. 10th – 11th, 2014.  10am – 8pm.  LIPF, 4 Audrey Ave. Oyster Bay, NY.  (516) 558-7511  Go to www.LIPF.com for more information and to see our other events.
