This delightful original vintage travel poster, created in 1949, promotes the stunning region of Norrbotten in northern Sweden. Illustrated by the talented Ragnar "Ranke" Sandgren, the poster features a majestic reindeer set against a serene, wintry backdrop. The scene captures the tranquil charm of the snow-covered landscapes of North Bothnia, a province known for its breathtaking natural beauty.
Mounted on old linen, the poster has a long tear at the bottom, along with signs of age-related wear, browning, and pinholes. Despite these imperfections, it is in good condition overall, offering a timeless piece of Scandinavian travel art that would look stunning when framed.
