*** 638/145 *** (UK based seller).
Original, HALF PAGE MAGAZINE advertisement, carefully removed from contemporary Punch magazines, published in the year stated, and approx. 10.5" x 4" (270mm x 100mm) in size.
--- PLEASE SEE ENLARGED PICTURE FOR PRINT'S CONDITION ('JCFMERA' overstamp is only visible on the scan, not on the actual print.) --- Great, collectible contemporary item, ideal to frame - a certain talking-point! (Any second scan shown is the reverse of the listed item.)

This advert was one of many salvaged from a huge load of old magazines
that I rescued long ago from a damp garage, where they had languished
for many years! As such, not all are not in pristine condition, some
with foxing, rust stains and/or holes from the staples, a little dirty,
or visible creases. However, because of the great artwork used in ads
from this period, they are still of great interest, and their condition
is reflected in the price of these now-scarce items!! ****
THESE ARE VERY OLD PAPER ITEMS, THAT MAY HAVE BEEN TRIMMED AND/OR REPAIRED, AND HAVE SLIGHT IMPERFECTIONS DUE TO THEIR AGE (ALTHOUGH I DO TRY TO DESCRIBE ANY MORE SERIOUS FAULTS NOTED). THESE ARE ORIGINAL PRINTS FROM PUBLISHED ITEMS OF THE DATE SHOWN BUT THEY ARE NOT THE ILLUSTRATOR'S ORIGINAL ARTWORK!! SOURCED AS THEY USUALLY ARE, FROM MAGAZINES, THEY WILL OFTEN HAVE PRINTING ON THE REVERSE (OFTEN OTHER GREAT PERIOD ADVERTS!).
