Post by: Sunday Silence on March 27, 2018, 05:28:43 PM

this is a well known cigarette advertisement by David Dellepiane:

what sort of print technique am I looking for to determine if its a knock off or original ? would I see halftones of varied size in the original? anything else as indicia? thanks.

At 15x23 inches, it's a smaller size, too (the size of the one shown in your link).

Do you know if this poster was also printed in a larger size?
