A 1930s poster for the pantomime ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ printed by Taylor's of Wombwell in South Yorkshire. In the mid-1920s, Taylor's of Wombwell was one of the UK's leading printers of advertising for the entertainment industry.
Undoubtedly the most sulphurous illustration of Red Riding Hood in history! No wonder the wolf looks so hungry…
Often reprinted, this poster caused indignation in the early 1950s, so much so that the printer Taylor's had to cover the slit in the skirt with paper before they could stick the posters up!
Our work consists in safekeeping the artistic heritage of advertising that we consider as a sociological trace of the twentieth century civilization. Our restoration studio proposes unique know-how in the conservation of old paper, of museum mounting and restoration of vintage poster.
