HUGE 23.5 X 29" POSTERS
1968 Chicago American Newspaper Inserts
What
a find! First of all these posters are very rare having appeared only in
the Chicago American paper during 1968. Second off, the Chicago American
had quality in mind when producing them--the backs of these are entirely blank
except for two notations and a number on each. The paper is newspaper
stock, so there is no bleeding through of materials from print matter on the
reverse. The folds are as you see, each poster has been divided into eight
quadrants because of this, but the paper holds strong--these are not brittle.
As
a whole this collection represents a trip back in time. Many of the actors
are classic, though a few very dated--how about using that valuable publishing
space on Raymond Burr in Ironside? The musicians represent the all-time
classics such as Elvis or The Beatles and then some retro flashbacks provided by
legends such as Nancy Sinatra and The Mamas and the Papas.
