Steinberg is renowned for his whimsical, modernist illustrations, and this specific design was produced by Regulated Cottons Inc. for retailers like J.C. Penney and Sears, Roebuck around 1952


The design, created in the early 1950s, features a whimsical, Las Vegas-inspired scene with stylized cowboys, palm trees, abstract automobiles, and street signs. This specific brown colorway with pink and green accents is a rare variation of the print.
