$72.00
Set of 4 Northern's Famous American Beauty Portraits 11x14". Perfect for framing. Good condition. Shows age. Comes with original envelope.
Bring a sense of mid-century nostalgia to your home with this complete set of four Northern's "Famous American Beauty Portraits". These 11x14" prints were a widely beloved advertising premium from Northern Paper Mills in the late 1950s and 1960s. Painted by renowned American illustrator Frances Hook, these images were used on Northern Tissue packaging to represent the soft quality and varied colors of their bath tissue.
The set includes four iconic pastel studies: the young girl with a kitten, the blonde girl with yellow flowers, the "Snow Girl" in winter gear, and the classic infant in a pink blanket. These portraits were a staple in 1960s nurseries and continue to be prized for their "sweet Americana" aesthetic. While the prints are in good vintage condition and perfect for framing, this set also includes the original mailing envelope, which adds significant value for advertising collectors.
These items are vintage, about 65 years old.
