1960s Commercial Stills: The Flintstones For Winston Cigarettes

CHRISTIAN MONTONE
"Spaceboy #1" (1996)
Approx. size:  11 x 17 inches.
Acrylic on vintage tobacco premium coupons and foamcore.

The coupons upon which this is painted came from a large stash that had been 
squirreled away by my grandfather Phillip Montone from Hazleton, Pennsylvania.  
Upon clearing out his old house (and shuttered neighborhood bar, which comprised most 
of the downstairs level) by Dad came upon these... and knew exactly who to give them to.
