This is the English-language version of a beautiful 1928 Swedish travel poster promoting Saltsjöbaden, a picturesque resort area just a half-hour trip from Stockholm.
The artwork, created by Åkerbladh, features a vibrant, illustrated map of the Stockholm archipelago. Notable highlights include probable depictions of Neptune in the lower right corner, symbolizing the sea, along with sailboats, a steamship, and an airplane soaring overhead. Activities like skiing, boating, fishing, and golfing are illustrated, alongside iconic sights such as the luxurious Grand Hotel, capturing the charm and leisure opportunities of Saltsjöbaden as a premier travel destination.
The poster is in very good condition, preserving its original look. Light wear.
