HARTMUTH PFEIL KUNSTANSTALT BORSIG DARMSTADT. 1957.
33x231/2 inches.

This poster announces that Borsig, a printer specializing in advertising, is moving to a new location. Using cut-outs of colored pieces paper Pfeil, who had designed several other posters printed by the company, creates an amusing character and a clever concept. Carrying an inking roll on his shoulder, this personification of a poster is visibly shown moving to the new location.
