Mystery poster still a mystery...
Richard,
I asked Alex Magoun (of the David Sarnoff Library and museum) about your poster. Unfortunately, he had no information about it but he referred me to Ray Chase, a mutual friend and a bit of an expert on paper collectibles.
Ray said "Never saw that poster, from the style I would place it as European in origin. Looks somewhat like the 860 series transmitting tube but overall it's pure fantasy artwork. Doesn't resemble anything else I've seen. Have no idea of value, depends on size, condition and who designed it. Is there an artists signature or initials anywhere on it? (Could be very small)"
