An Unfolded Italian Advertising Poster (measures 12 1/2" x 19" [32 x 48 cm]) (Learn More) John Hopps & Sons, the circa 1940s version of an Italian advertising poster that was originally printed in 1923, promoting a brand of Marsala wine, and featuring art the Roman god Mercury holding multiple flags which are protruding from a bottle of the wine. We have seen other versions of this poster that measure different sizes, but they are all extremely difficult to precisely date. Our best guess is that this poster is from no later than the 1940s. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Artist: Mario Bazzi Important Added Info: Note that this poster has a metal bar Also, note that based on that printer information on this poster, we believe it is likely from the 1940s, not 1923 when the art was originally created. This poster could be from 1923, or it could also be from the 1940s, and we are calling it that to err on the side of safety. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept this uncertainty. Condition: good to very good. The poster has several horizontal creases scattered in various areas (see our image). There are a few small tears in the right edge and there are some light creases in a few areas. Portions of the upper edge are separating from the metal bar. Given its age, it is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
