Bekking & Blitz 'Girl on Bicycle' Single Card, Fiep Westendorp

Single card with the illustration 'Girl on Bicycle'. Fiep Westendorp made this drawing in the summer of 1956 as an advertisement for Big Ben rainwear. Back then, it was still quite common that illustrators and graphic artists were used for visuals in advertising campaigns, because photography was not yet a sufficient means. Decades later, this smiling Fiep girl in her red raincoat and her dog is still preserved and is doing very well on a postcard.
