Vintage US Poster Stamp West Boston Bridge, Boston And Cambridge. Sparrow’s Chocolates Made By Boston Confectionery Co., Cambridge, Mass. This Stamp Is Unused And Was Previously Mounted To A Page, Resulting In A Strip Of Missing Gum Along The Top Edge Where It Was Glued. Approximately 80 Percent Of The Original Gum Remains. A Stain From The Mounting Glue Is 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 American Poster Stamp Features A Vivid, Stylized View Of The West Boston Bridge Connecting Boston And Cambridge, Massachusetts, With Trolley Tracks, Pedestrian Paths, And Ornate Light Posts Extending Across The Charles River. In The Background, The Industrial Skyline Of Cambridge Is Visible Under A Blue-And-Gold Dappled Sky, Including Domes And Smokestacks, Capturing The Early 20th-Century Urban Landscape. The Stamp Promotes Sparrow’s Chocolates, Made By The Boston Confectionery Company Of Cambridge, Massachusetts, With The Promotional Text Displayed Prominently Along The Bottom Border. The Image Is Both An Advertisement And A Celebration Of Regional Infrastructure, Reflecting The Popular Style Of Commercial Labels Used In The 1910s And 1920s. The Rich Colors And Architectural precision Suggest High-Quality Chromolithography, Likely Produced As A Premium Or Trade Card Insert. A Light Horizontal Fold Line Is Visible Near The Center, But No Tears Or Major Stains Are Evident. Visible Text (Rewritten In Sentence Form): West Boston Bridge, Boston And Cambridge.
