Rocco Navigato, Boul Mich, by the Elevated Lines - Numbered Limited Edition

Originally published in 1924, this poster promoted travel to Chicago's tourist destinations via the Elevated Rail Lines. Designed by Rocco Navigato, it shows a view of Michigan Avenue looking south and the newly opened Michigan Avenue Bridge connecting the northern and southern halves, once divided by the Chicago River. Navigato's studio was at the top of the Wrigley Building, which provided him this wonderful view of the bridge, the avenue and the London Guarantee Insurance building.

These original transit posters were printed in the mid 1920s and were 40 x 80" inches.  The scale of these posters was so large that it necessitated the creation of 2-part images to be printed on 2 sheets of paper and then be joined together when they were originally used as advertisements for the Elevated and other rail lines at different stations around Chicago and the surrounding areas.  Since each section of the image was originally drawn by hand by the artist, on separate plates, there are instances where portions of these images do not align perfectly.  This is the nature of these artworks and is not considered to be a flaw or defect.  That is exactly the way the posters were made and that is how we have revived the images in our collection of reproductions.
