Hazard's assorted boxes of Pain's celebrated fireworks. [1909 or 1915].

Date: 1909 - 1915

By: Olsson, Arthur Leslie, 1923-2019

Reference: Eph-C-FIRE-1909

Description: Lists in three columns the kinds of fireworks available. Verso has more listing. Exhibited in 'To market, to market' Exhibition of advertising and commercial ephemera from the Printed Ephemera Collection, Alexander Turnbull Library. First Floor foyer, National Library of New Zealand, 5 August - 16 September 1997. Perpetual calendar indicates that poster could date from 1909 or 1915. The reference to Kaiser Day (pro or anti the Kaiser?) could influence the decision about which of these two dates is correct. 1909 was chosen simply because a similar poster is dated 1910, but if the reference is anti-Kaiser, 1915 is the correct date. Quantity: 1 colour photo-mechanical print(s). Physical Description: Letterprint, red on white, 382 x 255 mm.
