The golden age of the theater poster ran from about 1890 to 1930, a period when mass-produced color lithography had finally caught up to what designers wanted to do, and painters like Toulouse-Lautrec and Alfons Mucha were producing posters for Paris cabarets and theatrical runs that are now held in serious museum collections. The Vintage Performing Arts Posters 2027 Wall Calendar from The Gifted Stationery Co. reproduces twelve posters from that period, from a Moulin Rouge playbill with its high-keyed reds to a Folies Berg�re dancer in Mucha's characteristic curved framing. The printing is careful enough to hold the specific flat-color aesthetic of early lithography without smoothing it into something digital.
