If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster is one of a remarkable collection of 46 pre-World War II German posters that we were consigned (and we are auctioning them in 46 separate auctions). They date from the 1880s to the late 1930s, but most are from the 1920s and 1930s. Posters from this time period are extremely scarce, due to the massive paper shortages in Germany during World War II. Many of these posters are for specific events that were held, and naturally, those posters would figure to be even more rare, since they could only have been used prior to the date of the event. This is a rare opportunity to purchase these extremely rare posters! Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has some slight darkening in the outer edges of the borders, and it is slightly rippled in the bottom half of the right 3", with a few light ripples in the rest of the poster. Overall, it has likely survived in about as nice condition as one could hope, with a poster of this age and size! Learn More about condition grades
