About the Item
Original advertisement for the Treo Girdle Company, published in the October 1923 issue of McCall’s Magazine, page 93, and likely in other publications as well.
This original advertisement showcases a rosy-cheeked, red-haired young woman gracefully posed in a pink girdle and satin slippers within an elegant interior setting, holding a yellow bird. The text promotes the "Treotex" Treo Elastic Girdle, emphasizing its "newly-invented surgical elastic web." The advertisement compellingly suggests this innovative material allows "all women, of whatever type of figure, to enjoy the figure-freedom, and dress-distinction that only the Treo Elastic Girdle imparts." The Treo company's tagline, "The more elastic to the corset — the more grace to the figure," would have resonated with the fashion conscious women of the era.

The Race Is One, Top-Notch Magazine Cover
By Victor Clyde Forsythe
Located in Fort Washington, PA
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Signature: Signed Lower Right
Cover Illustration for Top-Notch Magazine, August 15, 1921
Forsythe was a major influence on many great artists and had many important friends. He was Rockwell's studiomate and mentor and actually helped Rockwell to get his first cover at The Saturday Evening Post.
Forsythe was also friends with Teddy Roosevelt, who was the first President to drive a car. "The Race is On" 1921 depicts Teddy Roosevelt racing a cowpoke on horseback.
This is a phenomenal painting in many respects - historical, western, presidential, car. Roosevelt is a major collector's market. The car is a Red Model T Roadster as well. It also contains great action and drama - and beautifully rendered, as good if not better than any WR Leigh...

Cape Maneuver bullfighter oil painting
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Title: Cape Maneuver
Artist: José María Tuser Vázquez (Barcelona, 1919 – 1986)
Technique: Oil on canvas mounted on board
Dimensions: 19.7 x 23.6 in (50 x 60 cm)
Date: Circa 1980s
Signature: Signed "Tuser" in the lower left corner
Condition: Excellent; thick, vibrant brushwork and vivid colors well preserved.
📝 Description
This painting captures a dramatic moment in the bullfight — the classic verónica — as the matador gracefully halts the bull’s charge with a sweeping motion of the cape. The vivid contrast of magentas, blues, and golds intensifies the theatrical tension between man and beast. The composition is dynamic yet controlled, emphasizing the poise of the torero against the raw force of the bull.
The expressive brushstrokes and thick impasto enhance the sense of movement, while the abstracted background ensures focus remains on the central figures. The piece is a striking blend of figuration and emotional energy, characteristic of Tuser’s taurine works.
👤 About the Artist: José María Tuser Vázquez
José María Tuser Vázquez was a Spanish painter born in Barcelona in 1919. He studied at the Barcelona School of Arts and Crafts and began exhibiting in the 1940s. By 1947, he had fully devoted his career to bullfighting scenes, developing a distinctive figurative expressionist style with impressionist influences.
He collaborated with the magazine El Ruedo, creating numerous illustrations and covers, and designed collectible postcards for Editorial Artigas. His work became well-known in Spanish artistic circles and is now part of both private and institutional collections, including the Club Taurino of London.
His paintings have been auctioned internationally, reaching up to $3,000 depending on size and subject. His legacy is that of a painter who masterfully captured the emotion, tradition, and drama of the Spanish corrida.
