Condition: Condition Listed In Stamp Description
Grade: VF (Very Fine)
Vintage (Circa 1910-1920) US Poster Stamp The R.F. Johnston Paint Co. Makers Of Unusually Good Paints. Cor. Pearl And Main, Cin. OThis Stamp Is Unused. Approximately 95+++ Percent Of The Original Gum Remains. A Stain From The Mounting Glue Is Barely Visible On The Front Of The Stamp. Please Note That Any Imperfections Such As Stains, Marks, Or Creases May Appear Darker Or More Pronounced In The Scan Due To High-Contrast Imaging. Scans Are Never Altered In Any Way.This Striking Poster Stamp Advertises The R.F. Johnston Paint Company, Featuring A Stylized Illustration Of A Painter Seen From Behind, Sitting On A Suspended Platform With A Brush In One Hand And A Freshly Opened Can Of Red Paint At His Side. The Painter Is Dressed In White Overalls, A Cap, And A Red Neck Scarf, With A Rag Tucked In His Pocket And A Paintbrush Holster On His Belt. The Text Above Him Reads In Bold Red Block Letters: “The R.F. Johnston Paint Co. Makers Of Unusually Good Paints.” Below That, The Company’s Location Is Given As “Cor. Pearl & Main, Cin. O.,” Indicating Its Headquarters At The Corner Of Pearl And Main Streets In Cincinnati, Ohio. The Composition Uses A Limited But Bold Color Palette Of Red, White, And Black, With High Contrast For Maximum Readability And Visual Impact. The Clean Lines And Symmetry Suggest A Print Date In The 1910s Or Early 1920s, When Local Paint Companies Frequently Used Eye-Catching Poster Stamps As Trade Labels Or Promotional Giveaways. No Tears, Stains, Or Surface Imperfections Are Visible On The Stamp. Visible Text (Rewritten In Sentence Form): English: The R.F. Johnston Paint Co. Makers Of Unusually Good Paints. Cor.
