The city of Gothenburg celebrated its 300th anniversary 1923 and the cultural center was constructed for the commemorative exhibition (jubileumsutställningen) this year.
The exhibition section of the International Civil Aviation Exhibition in Gothenburg (ILUG) was held at Heden during the 1923 anniversary, while the air races were unloaded at Torslanda Flyghamn. Carl Meurling's poster was originally intended for the main anniversary exhibition, but was taken over by ILUG.
The poster has been folded and is mounted on linen with minor repairs. Looks great!
