This is a rare original vintage poster from 1958, promoting the Swedish Skiing Championships (SM på Skidor) held in Kalix from March 22 to 30.
The poster features a bold, graphic design in a red, white, and blue color scheme, giving it a strong visual impact. It depicts two cross-country skiers in dynamic motion, gliding through a snowy pine forest. The stylized trees are rendered in sharp angular lines, creating a sense of movement and winter atmosphere. The typography is striking, with "SM" in large red letters, drawing immediate attention.
Designed by Ib Adelborg, the artwork captures the excitement and prestige of Sweden's national skiing competition. Kalix, a town in Norrbotten County, Sweden, was the host location for this major sporting event.
A beautiful and rare piece of Swedish sports history. In excellent condition.
