Advert Description
Are you interested in this item? This item is up for auction at Catawiki. Please click on "respond to advert" (orange button) to get redirected to the Catawiki website. Catawiki’s goal is to make special objects universally available. Our weekly auctions feature thousands of unusual, rare, and exceptional objects you won’t find in just any store. In the 1930s people began to become aware that one had to keep the body healthy and that one could do this through sufficient exercise.
The then "Belgian Federation for Physical Education" organized major events to raise public awareness of necessary physical activity.
shortly before the outbreak of WWII, a grand international "La Lingiade" was organized in Brussels, in particular in the Palei des Beaux-Arts. We often see photos and pins of this, but an original poster is very exceptional.
By the way, this poster is an example of Art Deco at its peak.
The poster is in fair condition.
Please take a good look at the photos to make an informed decision.
The whole can be picked up in Zwalm, near Ghent.
The shipping costs to an island, also within Europe, can be found under "other destinations". Please check it carefully upon receipt to determine any damage together with the courier. Afterwards, no redress is possible with the shipping companies. The lot will be shipped with a tracking system. The recipient undertakes to follow up the sent object properly and to collect it if no one is at home. 67417613
