About this work

This is a bright orange folder with bold black text that reads *THE BARBER’S SHOP*. In the top right corner, there’s a small paper tag with a drawing of a barber’s pole and the words *Maestro Gerhard’s*. The tag lists phone numbers for two locations: Brunswick and Hyatt House. The folder looks like it was made quickly, with a rough edge and some wear. The tag suggests this might be for a real barbershop, not just art. If you’re curious about how this kind of print was made, look up lithography.
