An Original Vintage Linenbacked Polish Circus Poster (measures 26 1/2" x 39" [67 x 99 cm]) (Learn More) Cyrk (literally translates to "Circus"), the Polish circus poster featuring great artwork. Contemporary Polish circus posters emerged in 1962 as a genre of the Polish School of Posters. They are characterized by their display of aesthetic qualities such as painterly gestures, linear design, hand-lettering, metaphors, humor, and vibrant colors. Usually based on a single theme and meant to be advertisements, they were created in an attempt to interest the passerby in the upcoming circus. However, they proved so popular that some were reprinted and sold directly to the public and we list those as commercial posters. Artist: Wiktor Gorka Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster was never folded and had the most minor of border defects. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and looks great! Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
