There is a minor edge and corner wear, tiny tears, and creasing; some fait staining in the upper right quarter of the poster and in intermittent areas along the right edge; restored loss bottom left edge; poster should display very nicely once framed.
An original lithograph by Dom Lupo for Dartmouth's legendary Winter Carnival, printed just two months after Pearl Harbor drew America into the Second World War. The warm, glamorous illustration featuring a smiling ski couple wreathed in carnival streamers, belies the moment of its making. A genuine piece of American collegiate and wartime history.
