Sandwich and Soda (1964) is a seminal Pop Art screenprint by Roy Lichtenstein, featuring a, soda, and sandwich in a commercial,, comic-strip style. Printed on clear plastic (mylar) in an edition of 500, it marks an early experiment with non-paper materials, using red, blue, and white to emphasize American commercialism. This work is considered one of Lichtenstein's first attempts to use unconventional supports, printing on plastic to create a "glossy" appearance. The composition, featuring a "sweating" glass of cola and a sandwich, is a classic still life reimagined through the lens of 20th-century American advertising. The work primarily uses red, white, and blue, often viewed as a nod to American consumer culture.
