MARIA CALLAS / BLACKGLAMA (ca. 1970) Poster

Vintage original 30 x 22″ (75 x 55 cm.) poster, USA. Maria Callas. Wonderful poster for Blackglama Mink Furs, which also appeared as magazine ads at the time. Only the great legends of the entertainment world were asked to pose for the famous line of fur coats.

This is an absolutely stunning image of the Greek-American soprano famous for her dramatic interpretations of great opera roles and her bel canto vocal technique. The Blackglama ad campaign is one of the most ingenious in the history of American advertising. Some of the other legends include Judy Garland, Liza Minnelli, Marlene Dietrich, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Lana Turner, Cher, Rudolph Nureyev, Ray Charles and more recently, Janet Jackson. The early series, 1968-72, which Callas is a part of, were photographed by Richard Avedon.

Poster is unfolded and unused, FINE.
