Blenko 'Collectible paper goods Art?'


BLENKO GLASS COMPANY Milton, W.Va. has a long history of producing beautiful ads, catalogues, brochures, postcards, fliers. Pictured above are photos of two. The posters, ads, etc have become highly sought after items for collectors in the last decade. We have been 'looking for' the BLENKO LOVES BLENKO ad for about six years - without success. The photos above are part of a series that Wayne Husted is having reproduced poster art. He is offering the posters framed or not framed. I have been told there is a series of six.
If you have an interest in purchasing email theblenkoproject@aol.com
and I'll forward your address etc to Mr. Husted. hjh

Did W. Husted design these?
Excellent work, the graphic
artist was most talented if
not Husted.
You should buy all six.
Info about cost would be helpful,
can you add this?
PS - did you pass boards?
how was the white coat?
where are white coat photos?
My dental phobia needs a cure, I am thinking the white coat photo
could be step 1.
have you seen an old movie
'what about bob?'
