Brewer/Business Name: P. Ballantine & Sons, Newark, New Jersey
Manufacturer/Plant: Unknown
Date of manufacture: circa 1940s
Contents/Type: n/a
Dimensions: 19 w x 12-1/2 h; 23 w x 17 h framed.
Comments/description: Very cool graphic effect used here to define the jacket across all four images of the man consuming his glass of Ballantines Ale, in which the pattern is strictly 2-D, while everything else is rendered as if there is full dimensionality. While it may look as though hands are merely left floating, the mind fills in the missing lines and depth so the image makes more sense. Other than 3-4 vertical creases through the blue, the piece is in excellent condition, with minimal edge wear to the more delicate die cuts. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
