The print depicts a proud Scottish man in traditional Highland attire, complete with vibrant tartan plaid, smoking a pipe and holding a tin of Cutty’s Pipe Tobacco against the breathtaking backdrop of the Scottish Highlands.The most captivating element of this piece is its brilliant use of color—the lush greens of the landscape, the richly rendered skin tones, and the crisp detail in the plaid all contribute to a bold, eye-catching composition that exemplifies the vibrant style of 1930s lithographic advertising. This piece would have originally served as a promotional print, likely displayed in tobacconists or general stores, evoking both a romantic image of Scotland and a sense of brand pride.Though visually stunning, this original advertising print is in distressed condition.

Despite this, the lithograph retains remarkable visual impact and could greatly benefit from professional restoration by a reputable paper conservator.This is a hard-to-find piece of tobacco memorabilia and a wonderful example of Scottish cultural representation in early 20th-century commercial art. Whether left in its current state for a rustic, timeworn aesthetic or restored to its original brilliance, this print is a rare treasure for collectors of vintage advertising, Scottish memorabilia, or tobacco ephemera.Origin: USA, c. 1930sCondition: Distressed – see details above; suitable for restoration.
