Description:
Union Central Life Insurance, 1953. Very Good. Vintage ink blotter featuring advertisement for the Union Central Life Insurance Company with a vignette cartoon by Chas Addams, notable for his "Addams Family" and dark, macabre humor. Blotters were useful during the heyday of fountain pens (a device that tended to bleed ink), to be placed behind the parchment to absorb the excess ink and keep safe any surfaces beneath. Other blotters featuring the Union's ads include calendars with woodcut art by Lumen Winter. About 4 x 9 inches, card stock, printed on recto, plain blue verso. Very Good overall, foxing, rubbing, toning, a few bumps and creases but discreet. A rare Addams appearance.
