California Beaches Poster, circa 1920, Canvas Scroll
This travel poster was designed by Maurice Logan and produced by Southern Pacific. Created during the prosperous 1920s, this poster depicts a young woman in a bathing cap and figure- hugging tank swimsuit basking in the California sunshine. In this advertisement, Southern Pacific was selling its most important destination: Southern California. With the newly opened Panama Canal dominating commercial shipping, railroads increasingly relied on vacation travelers. Logan, an influential teacher and watercolorist, lived in Northern California most of his life.
Our reproductions are handmade in our Los Angeles studio using heavyweight 23 mil Epson Exhibition Satin Canvas. This elegantly textured canvas features a semi-gloss satin surface that is enhanced with protective elastic polymers. Decorative wood is assembled on the top and bottom, with two eye-hooks mounted on the top piece. We also supply a jute rope twine that can be attached between the two eye-hooks to complete the vintage feel of a roll down canvas scroll.
