- Lot Description
Dutch advertising poster, 30.5 x 42.5 in. (sight), using Woodrow Wilson's arrival in Europe to promote a brand of shoe polish, dated 1919. The poster depicts a toothy Wilson grinning while a boy polishes his shoe. The ocean liner George Washington is visible in the background. Wilson traveled across the Atlantic aboard the George Washington in December 1918, making him the first US President to visit Europe while in office. The English translation of the poster reads When Wilson set foot on shore, his shoes were polished with "Drietand" (Trident) shoe-cream. The picture shows the by law approved and established trademark of the Amsterdam Chemical Factory. With artist's signature and date H. Sanders '19. Framed, 35 x 47 in.
Even toning to poster, not examined outside of frame, but very fine condition overall.Condition
