Elizabeth I (7 September 1533 – 24 March 1603) was Queen of England and Ireland from 17 November 1558 until her death in 1603. She was the last monarch of the House of Tudor.
Elizabeth was the only surviving child of Henry VIII and his second wife, Anne Boleyn. When Elizabeth was two years old, her parents' marriage was annulled, her mother was executed, and Elizabeth was declared illegitimate. Henry restored her to the line of succession when she was 10, via the Third Succession Act 1543. After Henry's death in 1547, Elizabeth's younger half-brother Edward VI ruled until his own death in 1553, bequeathing the crown to a Protestant cousin, Lady Jane Grey, and ignoring the claims of his two half-sisters, the Catholic Mary and the younger Elizabeth, in spite of statutes to the contrary. Edward's will was set aside within weeks of his death and Mary became queen, deposing and executing Jane. During Mary's reign, Elizabeth was imprisoned for nearly a year on suspicion of supporting Protestant rebels.
NOTE: These pieces sell on eBay from $250 to $500 per. Gorgeous Art Deco piece!! Depression period made too!
CONDITION: This has some damage along the bottom 5 or 6 inches (see pic), there is a hold on bottom area (see pic) but in a frame, still would be really awesome! Please see pictures.
Some of these posters have a stamp on back that says "Addition Copies can be had by contacting Denoyer-Gepipert Co in Chicago"....that was a company in Chicago that started in 1906 by Mr. Denoyer, and is still in business making medical posters and pieces like skeletons, but this was for when this art came out in 1930's!
NOTE: We have 7 of these up for sale / auction now!!
