24 1/4x38 1/2 inches, 61 1/2x97 cm. Sodel, Paris.
Condition B+: repaired tears, creases and restoration in margins and image; minor restored loss in top margin.
An exceptional and uncharacteristic poster by Villemot. Designed with another artist, and is rendered in a far more realistic way than is usual for him. During the 1960s, the French National Electricity Company regularly issued bonds to raise money to help electrify the country. Various artists were employed to help with these bond issues. Although no biographical information can be turned up on Tauzin, his name appears alongside Villemot's on several posters designed for the Electricité de France. Villemot 194.
