The 1948 Olympic Games

Sport Poster: As the Olympic Games get closer and closer it is the perfect time to reflect upon the spectacular event and marvel at the games gone by. This vintage poster from the 1948 games held in London is a charming maxi poster with sketches of Big Ben, The Houses of Parliament and the historical Discuss-thrower; it is rather conservative in comparison to more recent advertisements for the games but is a beautiful piece of art work to commemorate the sporting wonder. The classic Olympic rings take center stage in the magnificently composed poster which would make the perfect edition to any Olympic enthusiast collection.
