Hindeland Bad Oberdorf Hochallgäu

This original German travel poster promotes Hindelang and Oberjoch in the Hochallgäu region of Bavaria, highlighting the alpine spa town of Bad Oberdorf and its sulfur healing baths (Schwefelheilbad) at an elevation of 850 meters. The design centers on a large, stylized alpine flower whose petals frame an idyllic mountain village landscape, with a church steeple, rolling meadows, and dramatic blue-toned mountains in the background. The circular vignette marked “Oberjoch 1150” emphasizes the higher-altitude resort area and reinforces the region’s appeal as a healthy mountain retreat.

The bold, graphic composition and refined color palette—contrasting deep blacks with luminous blues, greens, and yellows—are characteristic of mid-20th-century German poster design, combining modernist stylization with romantic alpine imagery. The poster was designed by Otfried Senger (born 1903), a noted graphic artist associated with tourism and regional advertising in southern Germany.

The poster is in very good condition, with strong colors and only minor signs of age consistent with its period.
