We are excited to offer an original, authentic poster promoting Norwegian Salmon from the early 20th century. This poster is a rare piece of vintage artwork that dates back to the golden era before fish farming, when all salmon sold was wild.
This vintage poster showcases a stunning illustration of a leaping salmon with the text "Saison Mai - August - Oscar Fredericksen Fiskehuset No 1." It's a beautiful example of vintage advertising that captures the allure and beauty of wild Norwegian salmon.
Fiskehuset no. 1, founded in 1870 by fishmonger Oscar Fredericksen, was the first fish wholesaler on the street "Gamle Strand." Fiskehusets Restaurant, located above the fishmonger, was known as Copenhagen's most fashionable fish restaurant. This vintage poster not only represents a unique piece of history but also a beautiful artwork from a time when Norwegian Salmon was a rare and sought-after delicacy.
This poster has probably never been hung, making it a unique and valuable addition to any collection. It's in excellent condition, with fresh ink color and only minor signs of being stored over the last century. You'll be amazed at how well this vintage poster has survived the test of time.
