Introducing a rare original vintage poster promoting the 11th exhibition of "Svenska Mässan" (Swedish Exhibition) in 1928. The poster features the logotype of the Swedish Exhibition & Congress Centre, a design that endures to this day.
In the early 20th century, various Swedish companies organized fairs to showcase and promote the nation's industry. This led to the conceptualization of a dedicated congress center, culminating in the official opening of the Swedish Exhibition and Congress Centre on 8 July 1918.
Despite exhibiting signs of age wear, including tears, dirt, scratches, crumbles, and small folds, this poster serves as a valuable artifact from a pivotal moment in the history of Swedish industry and exhibitions. Its enduring design showcases the longevity and impact of the Swedish Exhibition & Congress Centre.
