1974 Original Vintage Guinness Poster, The Dog & Crook, by Norman Thewell, pub lovers, advertising ale Irish stout print, wall art retro This poster comes from a portfolio of Inn Signs of well-known pub names by Norman Thewell, this one depicting The Dog & Crook where a nefarious thief has tried to walk off with the cash register in an act of theft, but unfortunately (for him), has tripped over a small dog at the entrance & fallen flat on his face! Dimensions: 15.5 in x 12.5 in (39 cm x 32 cm) Norman Thelwell was an English cartoonist well known for his humorous illustrations of ponies & horses. He became a contributor to the satirical magazine Punch, who first published his work in 1952, beginning a 25-year relationship that resulted in more than 1,500 cartoons, of which 60 were used as front covers. Thelwell's cartoons show a very traditional British way of life & the love of the countryside. His style & humour of the equestrian world are likeable to the young & the old. This is a genius marketing approach in today's world that a cartoon appeals to many generations & that is not easily done these days. Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear & tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, & edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. When framed these colourful & detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time. These posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard backed envelope for protection.
