A German Advertising Poster (measures 27 3/4" x 36 3/4" [70 x 93 cm]) (Learn More) Hotel Koschel, the 1914 German horizontal/querformat advertising poster encouraging people to choose the Hotel Koschel when staying in Berlin, Germany. Note that this poster features Friedrich Karl Georg Rumpf art of a man calling for a chauffeur to take him to the hotel (where rooms cost 3 Marks and included a bath). Rumpf was a painter, graphic designer, poster artist and author of books on art. His family villa in Potsdam is today owned by German fashion designer Wolfgang Joop (founder of the fashion and cosmetics company JOOP!). Artist: Friedrich Karl Georg Rumpf Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been mounted onto a "Chartex"-like material (we are not 100% certain it is Chartex, but if not, it is something very similar. Chartex is a backing paper that is a linen-like paper, similar to the material you line drawers with. It serves its function well in that the poster is preserved, which is why many restorers other than movie poster restorers use it, but it is very difficult to impossible to remove from the back of the poster. SO DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU CAN ACCEPT THAT IT LIKELY CAN'T BE REMOVED FROM ITS BACKING, AND WILL NEED TO BE KEPT AS IT IS (although it is not harming the poster, and it enables it to be displayed). Condition: good to very good. The poster was folded once in each direction with minor wear on the folds. It had pinholes in the top border, with tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss. It had a 1" tear near the center of the top border. It had an 8" diagonal crease in the bottom, near the center in the light background. It was mounted onto "Chartex" (see above) with no restoration. It has excess Chartex at the top and bottom. It almost surely can't be removed from the backing, but fortunately, it is in nice condition and can certainly be displayed as it is.
