This sale is for the original maquette for the Vinet rims poster that was duly printed and appeared on Herold's advertising board. This initial sketch turned out to be a very precious document. Here Grun's concept was "Changing a tire is a child's play", which accounts for the little boy dressed as a chauffeur and having fun replacing a tire. On the final version the following caption appears: "Savings time, effort, money". Jules-Alexandre Grun (25 May 1868 – 15 February 1934) was a French post-impressionist painter, poster artist, and illustrator.[1] Grun's best known painting is called The Dinner Party, produced in 1911. It was, however, in the fields of poster art and illustration art, for which he was famous. He was employed at a large printing company in Paris and his artistic director was Jules Cheret. Cheret was also his main competitor in poster art. (Wiki) This Poster is published in Grun Posters Book by Israel Perry and Alain Weill , 2005, Page 101.
