Vintage Mercedes Benz Stuttgart Lithograph Poster Framed Art Deco
About the Item
Striking and highly decorative vintage lithograph advertising poster for Mercedes-Benz, featuring an early Daimler motorcar set within a refined European cityscape, likely Stuttgart—the historic home of the marque. Executed in a bold Art Deco graphic style, the composition blends elegant figures, architectural elements, and vivid automotive imagery, making it a compelling focal point for both modern and classic interiors.
This example appears to be a large-format lithographic sample (marked “118” in black pen), suggesting use as a printer’s proof or showroom display piece rather than a standard production poster. The lower margin references “Werkstätte für Graphische Kunst, Stuttgart” and E. Schreiber G.m.b.H., a known German printing house associated with high-quality commercial graphics in the early-to-mid 20th century.
The poster is presented in its original period frame, featuring a textured black outer molding with a contrasting gilt inner liner, which complements the warm tones and graphic contrast of the artwork. The scale and presentation make this piece ideal for statement placement in automotive-themed interiors, offices, libraries, or curated gallery walls.
A rare and visually impactful piece that bridges automotive history, German industrial heritage, and Art Deco design, appealing to collectors of vintage advertising, automobilia, and early modern graphic arts.
