Add a touch of Scandinavian charm to your collection with this authentic original Swedish travel poster from 1955. Created to promote affordable winter trips with the Swedish State Railways (SJ), it captures the playful spirit of mid-century travel advertising.
The design features a whimsical skiing fox wrapped in a red scarf, joyfully gliding through a snowy landscape, with smaller skiers in the background adding depth and movement. The clever slogan, "Inte bara för fjällrävar" (Not just for mountain foxes), humorously invites everyone to embrace winter travel.
This is the international version of the poster, measuring 100 x 62 cm, while the Swedish edition was slightly larger at 100 x 70 cm. Despite some minor margin wear, a small tear at the upper edge, and a tiny piece missing from the upper right corner, the poster remains in good condition and serves as a stunning representation of mid-20th-century Scandinavian design.
Bring home a piece of history and let this delightful poster brighten your space!
