Alfonso Iannelli was just 22 years of age when he began creating the now iconic avant-garde Modernist posters for the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles. These lobby “showcards” done between 1910-1915 are truly remarkable… based squarely in geometry and on a grid system they represented something bold and fresh and certainly elevated these vaudeville acts to another level. I have posted a few of my favorites here.
