EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling streets of Paris in 1927. The image captures a unique moment in time, showcasing the first sandwich man to roam the city's streets. Dressed like a mountain shepherd, he stands out amidst the crowd as he sells cold lozenges with the assistance of a pony carrying advertising signs. In the foreground, another man carries a sign on his back promoting Le Pelerin newspaper and its publishing house, La Bonne Presse. This composition by Damblans was featured prominently in the central double page of Le Pelerin's February 27th issue that year. The scene is filled with energy and movement as people go about their daily lives. Policemen patrol the streets while pedestrians stroll past, seemingly unaffected by this novel form of advertising. The illustration beautifully captures both the vibrant atmosphere of Parisian life and its evolving communication methods during this era. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Patrice Cartier's collection, we are reminded of how much has changed since then. Yet it also serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with capturing moments from history through art.
