A French Advertising Poster (measures 17 1/4" x 22 1/2" [44 x 57 cm]) (Learn More)

JOB rolling papers is a popular brand of cigarette paper product first invented by French craftsman Jean Bardou in 1838. He made them out of thin rice paper and trademarked the packaging with his initials "JB" and a diamond in between. Because the diamond was often mistaken for a capital O, in 1849 he patented it under the name Papier, JOB. JOB is well-known for it's advertising posters which feature art of beautiful women by artists such as Alphonse Mucha. Mucha's art nouveau late 1890s poster showing a sinuous long-haired goddess holding a rolled cigarette was inspired by Michelangelo's Sibyls from the Sistine Chapel, and proved to be so popular that it was sold as a lithograph. Today the brand is still produced by Republic Tobacco in Perpignan, France.
Artist: Edgard Mascenice
Important Added Info:

Note that this item needs to be shipped in an oversized flat package. Most of these items absolutely can only be sent in flat packages, and could not possibly be rolled into a tube. Some of them might SEEM like they could be rolled in a tube, like a half-sheet, but they can't. The reason these items are in this auction is specifically because they CAN'T be rolled (because rolling any of them would damage them, even if they somehow can be rolled). So please bear in mind that this item must be sent in a LARGE flat package (the size of the package will depend on the size of the item when ready for shipping), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it.

Condition: fair to good. The poster was glued to a heavy board and attached to a wall with nails around the edges. It was attached to something with double-stick tape on the back of all the borders. It has paper loss in two corners and nail holes and surface paper loss around the edges, and it is sticky on the back from the tape. Obviously, this can be partially or completely restored, but bear in mind its many defects before placing a bid on it.
