ALDO COSOMATI (1895-1977) FOR THE WIMBLEDON TOURNAMENT JUNE 25TH. 1923. 17x12½ inches, 43¼x31¾ cm. [Johnson, Riddle & Co. Ltd., London]. Condition B+: time-staining and minor creases in margins and along vertical and horizontal folds; faded; printer's info trimmed off. Mounted on Chartex. An image that has previously been dated to 1922, however the Wimbledon championship that began on June 25th was the 1923 tournament. That year was the 43rd staging of the Wimbledon Championships, and the first Grand Slam tennis event of 1923 - it was the 2nd year that the games were held at their current venue on Church Road. Cosomati was born in Italy, and moved to London around 1920, after studying drawing, printing, bookbinding and furniture design in Zurich. His commercial projects were mostly commissions for the London Underground, including advertisements for events such as Horse Shows, an RAF Aerial pageant, Derby Day and more general promotions of the bus stops and train lines.

Artist: ALDO COSOMATI Size: 24 7/8 x 39 3/4 in./63.2 x 101 cm In an adorable image straight out of Disney central casting, a papa and baby tiger eye one another in Day-Glo hues, suggesting that both the exotic and the familiar await in Pakistan. B.O.A.C. stands for the British Overseas Airways Corporation (in case you always wondered what the Beatles lyric meant). It was the precursor to British Airways. Cosomati, an Italian immigrant to Britain, created posters for the London Underground in the 1920s before employment with the famous Curwen Press. (Travel; Animals; Aviation)
