OLLE HJORTZBERG OLYMPISCHE SPIELE / STOCKHOLM. 1912. 39 1/2x29 inches. A. Bortzells, Stockholm. Condition B+: creases and minor tear in image; wooden dowels affixed to top and bottom margins. 1912 marked the first year the Olympic games had an official poster. However, the image of athletes waving flags was considered too risque by the Swedish Olympic Committee, and a not so discreet ribbon had to be added to the design to keep the main figure modest. German version. Olympics p. 21 and cover.
