Highly Desirable Framed Winchester Repeating Arms Co. Henry R. Poore "Bear Dogs" Advertising Print

These Winchester advertisements were an excellent eye-catching piece around the turn of the century, that were perfect for pulling potential customers into shops to buy Winchester firearms and ammunition. Used in a number of Winchester advertisements, the print depicts a barn setting with white "bear dogs" in the foreground and two large brown dogs that may be bloodhounds in the background. These dogs were reportedly part of the Winchester family hunting pack. The lower left corner is signed by the artist "H. R. Poore/Philadelphia". A printed wood grain border surrounds the art, with red Winchester "W" logos in each corner, 3 shotshells on each side, "WINCHESTER" in gold paint at the top and "RIFLES, SHOTGUNS", "FOR SALE HERE" and "and AMMUNITION" at the bottom. The walnut frame measures approximately 45 inches wide and 36 inches tall, with the observable area of the print measuring approximately 41 1/2 inches wide and 32 1/2 inches tall.

ConditionVery fine. The print shows strong color and detail, with some horizontal creasing visible at the center and some crazing along the edges. The frame is very good, with mild handling marks. These Winchester advertising prints are highly desirable and make an excellent display piece to enhance your collection or as a statement piece in your office!
