Description
EDWARD M. EGGLESTON (1883-1941) ATLANTIC CITY / PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD. Circa 1935.
40½x25 inches, 102¾x63½ cm. O. Co., Clifton, N.J.
Condition A- / A: small tears, minor creases and abrasions at edges; minor creases in image. Paper.
Here, accompanied by a well-dressed suitor (the only man to appear in any of Eggleston's posters), the woman is looking out over the hustle and bustle of the famous Atlantic City boardwalk, with the ocean and the Steel Pier in the distance. Unlike his other two posters in the series this image doesn't focus on the beach, but on the elegant social elements of the vacation destination. This is the rarest of his three Atlantic City images; we have found only one other copy at auction in the past ten years. Eggleston p. 24.
