This is an original 1954 lithograph by Reginald Marsh for the Park Sheraton Hotel, located at 870 Seventh Avenue in New York City. Limited Edition Original Lithograph 588/2000.

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.

Reginald Marsh

Reginald Marsh (1898-1954) was an American painter noted for his depictions of vaudeville, burlesque dancers, the Bowery, and Coney Island. He worked often in tempera, watercolor, oil and ink. He was very popular during the 1920s and 1930s, and produced work for the New York Daily News, and Fortune Magazine. He became a teacher at the Art Students League of New York, and ran a summer camp where Roy Lichtenstein attended. His artwork can be seen at the New York Public Library, William Benton Museum of Art, and the Middendorf Gallery.
