Date Sold 9/26/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Unfolded French Stage Play Poster (measures 39" x 58 1/4" [99 x 148 cm]) (Learn More) The Folies Bergere is a cabaret music hall established in 1869 in Paris, France. Revues featured extravagant costumes, sets and effects, and often nude women. In 1926, Josephine Baker caused a sensation at the Folies Bergere by dancing in a costume consisting of a skirt made of a string of artificial bananas and little else. It has been the stage for many other famous acts including: Maurice Chevalier, Fernandel, W.C. Fields, Ella Fitzgerald, and many, many more! Artist: Alain Aslan Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned an example of this poster! It has similar art to posters that we have auctioned in the past, but those posters had "FOLIES BERGERE" at top, with "Folies de Paris" at lower left. This poster has "2 REVUES: 20h15 & 22h10" at top, does not have the text at lower left, and has an address and phone number at bottom. Also note that Aslan (Alain Gourdon) was a French painter, sculptor and pin-up artist who was well-known in France for his pin up artwork. He contributed a monthly pin-up to Lui (a French adult magazine) from 1964 to the early eighties. He is also the sculptor of the Dalida's (a famous French vocalist and actress) funerary statue on her tomb from 1987, and her bronze bust that was erected on Place Dalida in 1997. He also sculpted the Fifth Republic Marianne as Brigitte Bardot in 1970, followed by the Mireille Mathieu Marianne. Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has a few minor creases in portions of the top and bottom edges, and there is a tiny tear at upper right, but otherwise the ultra rare poster is in pretty nice condition!
