Title: A Small Collection of Bill O'Malley Broadsides Advertising Gallo Wine
Description: Modesto, CA: E. & J. Gallo Winery, 1948. Four broadsides; 9 1/4 x 11 1/2; small punctures to upper margins (from thumbtacks); light age-toning to margins and minor wear to edges and corners; a few small, unobtrusive, unfortunate pen marks to two of them; cartoon illustrations; very good condition. Two of the broadsides with Bill O'Malley's signature (in facsimile), the other two presumably also by him as the art and humorous subtitles are identical. What appear to be unrecorded broadsides advertising Gallo wine and E. & J. Gallo Winery, which was established in 1933, is the largest winery in the world today, and spans three generations of the Gallo family. The cartoons, showing people running to get wine, clutching bottles, and having hilarious conversations, were created by Bill O'Malley - a renowned and prolific American cartoonist, active from the 1940s until his death in the 1970s and best known for his his cartoons starring the two nuns Sister Maureen and Sister Colleen.
