DWIGHT SHEPLER DARTMOUTH CARNIVAL. 1936.
381/4x28 inches. Buck Printing, Boston.
Condition B+: repaired tears and overpainting in margins, affecting text at bottom.
An ice-skater in white is leaping against a blue background. Announcing a performance of "Snow White," this poster differs from others in the Dartmouth series in that it doesn't depict a skier. Also, the artist, Dwight Shepler, was becoming famous in his own right, primarily as a designer of posters advertising travel to Sun Valley, Idaho.
