This is an exceptionally rare and previously unseen original vintage travel poster released by the Swedish company Nyman & Schultz to promote their charter tours.
Founded in 1861, Nyman & Schultz AB originated as a shipping and trading company. In 1927, the travel agency was established as a subsidiary of the shipping company.
The poster portrays a captivating scene, possibly from the southern East Mediterranean. It evokes elements of Ottoman architecture, reminiscent of a street scene in Egypt or Tunisia. The imagery includes a camel, a woman carrying a basket of fruit, and Arabs strolling down the street against the backdrop of a minaret.
Professionally mounted on linen with careful restorations, the poster exhibits signs of age wear, attesting to its historical authenticity.
