$ 295OLIO RADINO — DALL’OLIVA PREGIATA — GINO BOCCASILE — 1940s
Small Italian point of purchase advertising display promoting Radino olive oil. The design by Gino Boccasile shows a smiling woman pouring olive oil over a bowl of salad, rendered in the bright colors and lively graphic style typical of Italian commercial illustration of the period. Boccasile (1901–1952) was a well known Italian illustrator and poster artist who produced advertising imagery, posters, and magazine illustrations for a wide range of Italian companies.
Printed in Milan on heavy card stock, this display piece was intended to hang in shops or window displays where the product was sold. A small string at the top allowed the carton to be suspended as a point of purchase advertisement. Radino olive oil continues to be produced today and the image created by Boccasile remains associated with the brand.
