J. COSTA MAGNA (DATES UNKNOWN)

MONTE - CARLO GOLF CLUB / PAN AMERICAN ROMAN HOLIDAY TROPHY. Circa 1960s.


47x30 1/4 inches, 119 1/2x77 cm. Monégasque, Monte Carlo.
Condition B+: restoration along repaired tears at edges and in image; slight restoration along vertical and horizontal folds and in lower left margin; minor creases and abrasions at edges.

A Pan Am jet soars over Monte Carlo, framed by a column with a bag of clubs leaning against it. Pan Am sponsored many different tournaments across the sporting world as means of promoting their own brand, including sumo wrestling, fishing and golf. No history is left of this specific tournament other than this poster boasting a magnificent view of the bay from the golf club, high in the hills above the city and the bay.
