Date Sold 4/13/2017Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Unfolded S2 Re-Creation Poster (measures 17 3/4" x 49 1/2" [45 x 126 cm]) (Learn More) The Casino de Paris was founded in the 1910s (the building has a history dating back to the 18th century) and is one of the most well-known music halls of Paris, France. Despite what the name may suggest, it is a performance venue, and not a gambling house. Over the decades, performers who have played the Casino de Paris have included Mistinguett, Maurice Chevalier, Josephine Baker, Micheline Bernardini, Tino Rossi, and many more! Important Added Info: Note that this is a poster from the "S2 Art Group". In the late 1990s, this company bought 100 year-old lithograph presses, and completely refurbished them, and then recreated stone litho printing plates for classic movie posters (mostly one-sheets, and mostly the most expensive posters from the 1920s and 1930s!), and then printed them on the 100 year-old presses, in exactly the same way the posters were originally printed (re-creating them down to the finest detail within the art), and the one-sheets measure 27" x 41". The only way that they are different from the originals is that they have small writing at the bottom that indicates the name of the person who created the new printing plates, along with the year the particular poster was printed. In some ways they are better than the original posters, because they are printed on a much higher quality paper (similar to that of a 30x40, but somewhat heavier, and not on a high-gloss coated stock, but with a "flat" finish). If you have never seen one of these in person, you might think they are simply "a reproduction", but they really are vastly superior to any reproductions, and they look incredible in person and are certainly an attractive and affordable alternative to most original posters! This particular recreation was produced in 1999 in New York City and has the chromist's name printed at lower right. Condition: very good to fine. The S2 recreation is in very nice condition!
