Italian size format: 39” x 55”.
Coppertone is an American suntan cream, and the famous girl-and-dog image has become an American icon. The U.S. version is extremely difficult to find, but a limited number of these large Italian-format posters surfaced—making this piece especially desirable for collectors. In 1959, artist Joyce Ballantyne created the landmark Coppertone image, using her 3-year-old daughter, Cheri Brand, as the model.
