An Original Vintage Linenbacked Half Subway Radio Poster (measures 29 1/4" x 45 1/2" [74 x 116 cm]) (Learn More)

WNEW AM 1130, the 1980s radio poster ("Blessed with America's Best") featuring Stephen Foster artwork of Frank Sinatra. WNEW was founded in 1934 and was known for its popular adult music selection as well as its staff of radio personalities. In 1935, WNEW pioneered the concept of a disc jockey when staff announcer Martin Block needed to fill time between news bulletins, and played records instead of the usual live orchestra. When the station was shut down in 1992, the last two songs played were by Frank Sinatra: Here's That Rainy Day and We'll Meet Again.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that around this time, studios were creating "subway posters" for many releases, which were 45" x 60" horizontally-shaped posters that were glued up on walls all over New York City (hence the name "subway poster"). They also made these smaller "subway" posters which measure approximately half the size of a regular "subway" poster (usually around 29" x 45"), and look like a one-sheet, only bigger, but they have information about one or more specific New York theaters then-currently showing that movie.
