Condition A-: minor tears and creases in margins. Paper.
This poster announces that Borsig, a printer specializing in advertising, is moving to a new location. Using cut-outs of colored pieces paper Pfeil, who had designed several other posters printed by the company, creates an amusing character and a clever concept.
