Auction History Result 4z0055 GOODYEAR 17x21 advertising poster 1950s Dickens art of smoking woman with stick-on-soles! Date Sold 8/31/2023![]() Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Unfolded Advertising Poster (measures 16 1/2" x 21" [42 x 53 cm]) (Learn More) Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company was founded in 1898 in Akron, Ohio by Frank Seiberling. It was named after Charles Goodyear who invented vulcanized rubber in 1839. Still one of the top tire producers of today, it is almost as well know for flying The Goodyear Blimp, which is one of the most recognizable advertising icons in America! Artist: Archie Dickens Important Added Info: Note that Archie Dickens was a British artist from the 1940s to the 2000s. He was perhaps best known for his greeting card and pin-up artwork (he often signed his greeting card artwork as "Gluckli"). Maybe it is just us, but this seems like a very odd image for a major company's advertising (of course, the Goodyear company is famous for its tires, but they invented other uses for rubber, including these stick-on soles, which are still made in the present day, because they serve a valuable function!). The girl is in a somewhat provocative pose and she is blowing smoke rings from his cigarette, which seems very "out of its time" for a young lady from the 1950s! Condition: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It has some minor creases around the edges. Learn More about condition grades ![]()
