Large Antique 1909 HORLACHER Brewing Co. Lithograph Advertising Print- Original

Description

This is an original and dated 1909 chromolithograph advertising print for Horlacher Brewing Company of Allentown, Pennsylvania. Very large size 10 color lithograph print of Betsy Ross sewing our flag at her home in old city Philadelphia while looking out the window at the Delaware River port scene.  The print is the largest Horlacher issued at 30.5 by 24 inches total. These were generally framed and hanging in taverns as this copy appears to have been at one time. Nail holes can be seen at the very edge of the sheet were the backing nails had gone through into the frame. There are several water tide marks along the margin and just going into the image. But not visible at all in the image area due to the coloring. Image is quite good and dark with no fading.
The print was copied from the oil painting in the possession of the company. Printed on stiffer paper and should not be rolled and mailed flat only. On foam board with plastic sheet covering it. I will ship it via Fedex flat within multiple layers of cardboard to make sure it does not get bent and damaged.
Please see that there is a lot of glare reflecting off of the plastic sheet in front of the image. The print itself is very good.
I had one of these 12 years ago that I sold for 0 unframed in my gallery and had no others since this one.
