This is a great original vintage poster designed by the designer, writer, and optician Fale Burman in 1956 to promote the "Internationella Skogsutställningen i Stockholm" (International Forestry Exhibition in Stockholm).
The poster features a very stylish design of a Scandinavian pine tree, half green and half yellow, with a purple rotating saw "attacking" the yellow side of the tree, leaving a trail of sawdust. The design is complemented by yellow lettering on a dark blue background.
The forest exhibition was held at the venue S:t Eriks-Mässan, just north of Lidingövägen on Storängsbotten. Notably, it was the first international forest exhibition in the world.
The poster is in excellent condition. A lovely example of 1950s design that would make a striking addition to any wall.
