Advertisement poster for kerosene burner "Europa G.K.". R.H. Hacohen printing press / "Grafika Yerushalayim", Jerusalem, [ca.1925-1926]. Design: Pesach Ir-Shai.
It is possible that this poster was created shortly after Ir-Shai's arrival in Jerusalem in 1925 or shortly afterwards. The poster is designed in a modernistic style while the font "Haim" designed by "Ir-Shai" does not appear, although it was very often used in later posters.
48X33 cm, framed 60X45.5 cm. Good condition. Creases. Cloth-backed (?). Not examined out of frame.
