Description
Cherry Kobler — Pierre Marrast, 1937 Art Deco lithograph poster was created for a woman who composed songs and sang them while accompanying herself on the piano, and this 1937 Columbia Records poster presents her in a striking, direct-to-audience portrait. Centered against a dramatic dark backdrop, the artist Pierre Marrast captures Cherry with shining, alert eyes, cherry-red fingernails, and a wide-open, welcoming gaze. Her posed, confident expression gives the work an unmistakable sense of stage presence—as if it were a moment just before she begins playing and singing for her audience.
As labeled in the text accompanying the portrait, the date of this vintage piece is 1937, with its association to Columbia Records referenced through historical material. With its clean, bold design and character-driven imagery, the poster reflects the promotional energy of the era: music, performance, and popular entertainment communicated through artwork that feels both personal and inviting.
This is an attractive original vintage lithograph featuring Cherry Kobler as the featured personality, produced at a time when touring and radio-era recognition made performers especially visible to the public. Whether displayed as part of a music-poster collection or alongside other 1930s ephemera, the graphic presence here is both eye-catching and period-authentic.
