Kostumball 1930 (literally translates to "A.D.A.C. Costume Ball 1930"), the 1930 German poster promoting a costume and fancy dress event by the Allgemeiner Deutscher Automobil-Club (General German Automobile Club), which was held at the Deutsches Theater in Munich, Germany. Note that this poster features wild artwork of female partygoers in a car with a human head by Franz Paul Glass. Glass was a German graphic designer, painter, illustrator and typographer from the 1910s to the 1960s. In 1914 Glass (along with Valentin Zietara, Friedrich Heubner, Carl Moos, Emil Preetorius and Max Schwarzer) founded the artist group "Die Sechs" (The Six) to counterbalance Ludwig Hohlwein, who was the dominant figurehead in the field of German advertising. Their service included the offer of six different initial designs for every job. Munich (the Bavarian capital) used to be a carnival stronghold from the turn of the 19th to the 20th century until well into the 1930s, and it is in fact alive and kicking today. In 1914 alone, there were 533 masked balls and 145 black and white balls. This phenomenon of decadent hustle and bustle was created in particular by the artists of the Schwabinger Boheme, at first in the form of wild studio festivals, but increasingly also by artists' balls.

Artist: Franz Paul Glass Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this German poster (and the very same example we auctioned in 2018 which sold for $480 has been reconsigned to us for this auction! Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a strip of plastic with holes attached to the back of the top border (no doubt this was done as a way of hanging this poster with others on racks, and being able to easily access any of them). The plastic strip could be removed by a professional or talented amateur, or of course, the excess plastic could simply be trimmed off. It has a 2" tear in the bottom border that has paper tape on the back, and two tape stains in the bottom blank border near that. Otherwise, the poster is in nice condition!
