Lot 303:
Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! This lot features a vintage promotional poster and its original storage envelope, produced for a Doritos marketing campaign by Frito-Lay, Inc., likely dating to the 1970s. The poster, titled The Old Ball Game, consists of a dense collage of early 20th-century baseball ephemera and player imagery. The graphic design incorporates reproductions of historical items such as a 1923 Yankee Stadium rain check, a 1925 Washington versus Pittsburgh World Series scorecard, and a 1930 Athletics World Series souvenir program. Player imagery includes Ty Cobb in a Detroit uniform and Babe Ruth featured in a Bambino brand advertisement. The collection also depicts vintage tobacco cards, pins, and various advertisements from the era. The original mailing and storage envelope is printed with the Doritos Tortilla Chips logo and promotional text offering the poster free with the purchase of two bags of chips. The trademark attribution for Frito-Lay, Inc. is printed on the lower right of the envelope.
