Tile Sample: Cookie Cutters T-17Description
A sales sample with a four-color silkscreen print on glossy white cardboard depicting the outlines of cookie cutters on irregularly shaped fields of vibrant color. The area between the color fields is speckled with pink and teal dots. This tile sample was printed on cardboard to ease the burden of weight for Country Prints’ independent sales representatives. The sample was once bordered in black adhesive tape similar to that found on other known Country Prints sales samples.
This tile design appears in the c.1955 wholesale brochure “Robert Darr Wert/Country Print Tiles”; see images.
This sample is from Country Prints’ independent west coast sales representative Ruth Gauss Flynn.Made/Created
