Presented here is a rare and authentic vintage poster that served as a promotional piece for the 1933 Mariestad exhibition. This landmark anniversary exhibition, held from June 21 to July 16, 1933, was organized by the Skaraborg County Craftsmen's and Industrial Craftsmen's Association.
The Mariestad jubilee exhibition was a momentous event that garnered royal attention, graced with the presence of the king during its opening on June 21. It showcased a diverse array of products encompassing industry, handicrafts, and domestic crafts. In conjunction with the exhibition's inauguration, Mariestad also celebrated its 350th anniversary since its foundation.
The poster, adorned with the artist's signature "E E," features a captivating rendering of the Mariestad Cathedral set against a vibrant backdrop of red, orange, and yellow hues.
This vintage poster has been remarkably preserved, with vivid colors that have endured the test of time. It bears no tears and is marked only by pinholes in each corner, reflecting its excellent overall condition.
