J. SVOBODA (DATES UNKNOWN) CZECHOSLOVAK DAY / AT A CENTURY OF PROGRESS. 1933.
33 3/4x22 1/4 inches, 86x56 1/2 cm. Pontiac Eng. and Electro Co., Chicago.
Condition B+: repaired tears and restoration in margins and image; minor chipping at edges.
A rare image for a one-day event honoring the culture and heritage of Czechoslovakia, held at the Chicago World's Fair in 1933. A very similar image was used on the cover of a book printed for the Czechoslovak Pavilion, and we get the artist's name from that publication. As a one-day event, far fewer of these posters were printed than for other events that had a longer run during the Fair.
