Description :
Lithograph in colours by Weiskonig signed and dated 1946 in the stone, published by Orell, Fusilli, Zurich to promote and be the official poster of the St Moritz Winter Olympic Games, the first Winter Olympic Games held after the war. An exceptionally rare poster displaying superb original colouration characteristics.
The poster would benefit from some restoration however to a pair of short closed tears and a library mark lower right and this could be done fairly reasonably by arrangement. Very scarce indeed.
