EDITORS COMMENTS
- A captivating vintage poster from the 1920s, showcasing the allure of a newsvendor stand and the intrigue of a mysterious woman's dream. This evocative image, titled "Pegs Paper," is a stunning example of graphic design from the era, brought to us by Mary Evans Picture Library/Onslow Auctions Limited from their extensive collection. The poster, circa 1927, invites us to imagine a woman lying in bed, her thoughts carried away by the promise of a new day and the allure of the unknown. In her hand, she clutches a single peg, a symbol of the newsvendor's stand outside her window. The stand, adorned with an array of magazines and books, beckons with the promise of adventure, knowledge, and escape. The 3D effect of the poster adds depth and dimension, drawing the viewer into the scene. The woman's expression is one of longing and curiosity, as if she is on the cusp of making a decision that will change her life. The man at the stand, with his serious expression and outstretched hand, seems to offer her the key to unlocking her dreams. The poster's intricate details, from the price list of pence and pennies to the various magazine titles, transport us back in time to the bustling streets of the 1920s. The playful use of the word "gipsy" in the tagline adds an element of mystery and adventure, further fueling the woman's desire to explore the world beyond her bedroom window. With its rich colors, bold typography, and intriguing narrative, "How Could She Know?" is a must-have for any vintage poster or graphic design collection. It is a testament to the power of imagination and the allure of the unknown, reminding us that sometimes, all it takes is a single peg to change the course of our lives.
