Description: This vintage linen postcard features Charles Henry Forbell's artwork of Andersen's Pea Soup Restaurant in Buellton, CA. The postcard is an original and has a divided back. It measures 5.5 x 3.5 inches and was manufactured between 1930-1939 in the United States. The postcard is a great addition to any collection and is perfect for fans of American cartoonist and advertising artist, Naughty Pete, and Mr Peanut. The postcard also features advertising and comics, making it a unique piece of history. NOTE: also have this postcard as a Chrome postcard as well. See my other listings. Thanks. Charles Henry Forbell was indeed a significant figure in early American cartooning and advertising. His work on "Naughty Pete" showcased his innovative approach to comic strip art, particularly in his use of color and layout, which was quite advanced for its time. Although "Naughty Pete" was short-lived, it left a lasting impression due to its creativity. Forbell's contributions to advertising, especially with iconic brands like Mr. Peanut and Campbell Soup, further highlight his versatility as an artist. His designs for these companies, including the Campbell Soup mascots Happy and Peawee, demonstrate his ability to create enduring and memorable characters that have become part of American pop culture.
