1954 Lithograph Moses Soyer Art Harry N. Abrams Publisher New York City AEFA2
This is not a lithograph "after" the artist. This lithograph was created by the original artist on the lithograph plate, and is, therefore, a true original lithograph.
Period Paper has obtained an extraordinary, ultra-rare collection of original lithographs by some of the premier graphic artists of the 1950's. These lithographs were produced for an annual art event in the 1950's for local businesses and major corporations largely based in New York. Historically important for corporate archivists, these are extremely rare to locate and are virtually unseen individually. The original lithographs were produced in only one edition, and included just 2,000. These lithographs are perhaps the most unique, rare, important advertising collectibles that exist for businesses and corporations.

Moses Soyer
Moses Soyer (1899-1974) was a Russian-American artist who was dedicated to making social statements through his realist artwork. This is evident in his pieces reflecting the themes of the Great Depression. After the 1930s, SoyerÕs subjects turned toward ballet figures, which usually conveyed sentimental emotions. Soyer was one of three artistic brothers, and studied at the Cooper Union Art School, and the National Academy of Design School.
