1919
This vibrant 1919 Swedish poster for Charlie Chaplin’s silent short 'A Day’s Pleasure'—titled 'Gentlemanna-chauffören' (The Gentleman Chauffeur) here—bursts with chaotic energy. Artist Eric Rohman uses a playful caricature style, giving the Tramp a massive head and iconic bowler hat as he navigates a tiny red car over a bumpy, debris-filled road with two kids in the back. It perfectly captures the film’s plot, where a simple Sunday drive in a Ford Model T turns into a hilarious disaster of mechanical breakdowns and seasickness, proving that even the world's most famous comedian couldn't escape car trouble.
