Here we have an original vintage Spanish travel poster enticing travelers to visit Spain, featuring a captivating image of the Puerta del Alcázar.
With the simple yet compelling text, "Spain Attracts then keeps," this poster is believed to have been produced between 1929 and 1939, as noted by the Cervantes Institute (Instituto Cervantes).
The Puerta del Alcázar (Gate of the Fortress) is a notable entryway into the old city, situated within the Walls of Ávila. It stands out with its twin towers, each towering 20 meters high, linked by a semicircular arch—a unique feature among European walls.
While showing some signs of age and having been rolled, the poster remains in overall good condition. It would make a striking addition to any space, especially when elegantly framed.
