Wow! A Globe Printing Corp cardboard poster! We couldn’t be more thrilled to offer you this scarce original poster for the FIRST TIME in our auction. It advertised "The Top Ten Review of 1956" occurring on November 5th, 1956 in Chattanooga, and featured legendary names like Little Richard, Bill Doggett, Big Joe Turner, Etta James, and more!

 


From its opening in 1929 until its closure in 2010 Globe Poster Company in Baltimore was the go-to place for musicians circuses drag races and concert producers for bold eye-catching letterpress advertising. It's no secret that Globe cardboard concert posters are the gold standard amongst advanced collectors. They rarely show up at public auction and when they do they are always met with enthusiastic bidding!
