Vintage "Cleopatra" Advertising Litho by Henderson Lithograph Co.

Item Details

A collection of four vintage advertising lithographs that feature a bare busted ‘Cleopatra’. These Art Deco era, Egyptian Revival depictions were created by Cincinnati’s Henderson Lithograph Company. Created sometime between 1930-1940, these advertising pieces are purported to have never been used due to the nudity. The original Henderson tag is on the verso. The front Bottom is titled ‘La Union’ and then reads ‘S.A. Cia Joabonera de Torrean, Torrean Coah.’ This representation is that of the Queen, riding on the Nile in her barque, awaiting the arrival of Mark Anthony.
