1924 Print Eugene Grasset Mini Poster Art Life of Napoleon Century Magazine

This is an original 1924 halftone print of a poster, designed by Eugène Grasset in 1894, advertising a new life of Napoleon --now beginning in The Century Magazine. From Les Affiches illustrées, Ernest Maindron, Paris, 1896. (Please note: As would be expected with an original halftone print, there is printing on the reverse of this item.)

Period Paper is pleased to offer a rare and exceptional "mini poster" collection of some of the finest examples of poster advertising art of the late 19th and early 20th century. The collection includes color prints, black and white halftone prints, and several lithographs. Although as "mini posters" they are but a fraction of the size of the original, their powerful graphic designs combined with a succinct advertising message make them highly collectible pieces for the popular culture historian, the poster art collector, or those interested in the history of poster design. Please note: these items are from 1924 and are not modern reproductions, copies, or digital prints.
