This is a genuine antique poster released by the Stockholms Idrottsförbund to advertise their lottery in the spring of 1924. The poster is signed by G. Holmgren, likely Gustav Holmgren, a visual and graphic artist, and press commissioner.
Newspaper articles from the era describe the event:
"A Beauty Pageant for Women.
A spring festival with a diverse program is being organized in Stockholm on May 9, 10, and 11 by the Stockholm Sports Association to benefit the Johanneshov park and sports facility. This unique spring festival features a cabaret, soirée, parade through the city, airplane display, raffle, concert at the Auditorium, and more. Additionally, a beauty pageant for Swedish women is being held. The aim is to highlight the ideal type of the healthy Swedish woman."
The poster is backed on linen and is in very good condition, with some signs of age, such as old linen and crumbles.
This is an Authentic Original Vintage Poster from its time. It's not a new reproduction.
