EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: The Determined Guinness Savior, Circa 1939 This humorous illustration from the 1930s, by the renowned artist John Gilroy for Guinness, showcases a man in a desperate race against time to save his precious bottle of Guinness from the imminent grasp of a large, heavy machinery claw. The scene exudes a sense of urgency and excitement, as the man, with a determined expression on his face, leaps over obstacles and dodges obstacles in his frantic attempt to save his beloved beverage. The contrast between the man's small size and the immense power of the machinery creates a comical effect that is sure to elicit a chuckle from viewers. The illustration, which is reminiscent of the era's cartoonish advertising style, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Guinness and the lengths people will go to enjoy a cold pint. The use of bold lines, vibrant colors, and dynamic composition make this a standout piece in any collection, and it is a must-have for those interested in advertising art from the 1930s. This image, which is part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, is an excellent addition to any advertising or illustration-focused annual buyers' guide. Its humorous and timeless appeal makes it a great conversation starter and a unique addition to any decor. Whether you're a fan of Guinness, advertising history, or just looking for a piece of art that brings a smile to your face, this illustration is sure to impress.
