Andy Warhol “Bank” (RCA Color Scanner) 1968 — Rare Large Poster 44.5" x 29.5" — Restoration Candidate
A scarce, museum-collected RCA advertising poster: Andy Warhol’s “Bank” (1968) — the unforgettable flower-painted pig (“Gaudy”), photographed by Irwin Horowitz and distributed exclusively by Darien House, Inc., New York.
Size: 44 1/2" x 29 1/2" (large-format original).
Condition (Conservation/Restoration Project): This poster shows substantial moisture staining, heavy creases/rippling, edge tears, and paper loss (especially at the upper right and along the bottom edge), plus mounting marks and tape residue to the reverse. Sold as found / as imaged—ideal for a buyer who understands professional poster conservation/linen backing.
From us: We’ve been in the antiques & collectibles business for nearly five decades, with an online presence going back to 1999—and there are very few pieces I personally covet. This is one of them. I’m listing it briefly; if it doesn’t sell, I’ll likely have it conserved and may simply keep it.
Printing note: ©1968 imprint and Darien House distribution line present; offered as an original period poster (no numbered-edition claim).
