Product Overview
A Day at the Races is a hand pulled fine art movie poster lithograph by S2 Art from their Art of the Movies collection. This is an exact recreation one of the 1937 theatrical release one-sheet that was first created in 1936 by Hal Hirschfeld. It's pulled through a rare, antique, German Dufa printing press on Coventry archival 100% cotton paper.
A Day at the Races feature the Marx Brothers, Allan Jones and Maureen O'Sullivan. The tagline reads: The Years Big Laugh, Music and Girl Show!
This is not a reprint or reproduction. It is a remastered, recreated, original work of art.
This one-sheet was produced at S2 Editions Atelier, New York City, in 2002, under the guidance of the Ré Society Ltd, and S2 Art company. It was created in partnership with the American Film Institute's, 100 American Classic Movie Posters.
This lithograph bears the trademark of the Ré Society, plus the blind stamped emblem of the S2 Editions Atelier. The signature of the chromist, Speranta Popper, is also printed unobtrusively on this lithograph in order to distinguish it from the original Golden Age poster.
The lithograph is sequentially numbered in pencil in the lower right border, by a curator at S2 Editions.
