WHY BOW YOUR BACK? 1929.
43 3/4x36 1/4 inches. Mather & Compnay, Chicago.
Condition B+: minor tears and losses along left edge; punch-holes in top margin
A black cat is bristling in front of a brown dog, against a green background. From 1923-1929, the Mather Company produced a series of posters which owner Charles Mather deemed "Constructive Organization Posters." They have since come to be known as the Mather Work Incentive Posters. "Aimed at improving the work practices of employees in industry and commerce" in the boom times following the First World War, Mather combined striking, bold graphics, direct messages and superb lithography to create "one of the most outstanding continuous series of graphically significant posters ever produced in America." (FAMLI).
