Rare 1935 Art Deco Standard Bathtub Plumbing Brochure Mid Century Modern Design
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:20273081 |
This is a very cool original paper brochure for the Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, makers of modern plumbing fixtures and colorful bathtubs, in their "Neo-Angle" style of the period. Very much in the streamline moderne and art deco look as a precursor to th...e mid-century modern look just emerging around that time. The brochure shows a couple of minor corner creases and slight edge wear, and for ephemera of the period is very sharp with colorful vignette images of the products and chaste line drawings of nude and semi-nude women posing in and around the bathtubs and showers.
The brochure measures approximately 3 1/2" by 6" overall folded closed, with great colors and sharp text throughout, very supple and clean. Overall quite fine as it was stored for decades in an artist's "morgue file" for reference purposes only.
