A vintage travel poster promoting the French spa town of Aix-les-Bains and Mont Revard, a nearby mountain in the French Alps. These posters were often created in the early to mid-20th century, particularly during the golden age of railway and tourism advertising.
Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm.
When framed these colourful and detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time.
These posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
