    Comments:
    Original German advertising poster for Crüwell Tabak, c. 1930s. The design shows a nighttime view of the Taj Mahal, linking the tobacco brand with imagery of the East. The text reads Gebr. Crüwell Spezialfabrik für Rauchtabak Gegr. 1717 Bielefeld (“Crüwell Brothers, Special Factory for Smoking Tobacco, Established 1717, Bielefeld”).

    Crüwell was a long-established German tobacco manufacturer with origins in the 18th century. By the early 20th century the company issued a number of decorative posters and point-of-purchase displays to promote its pipe tobacco products. This example was printed on heavy board for shop display rather than wall posting, and is smaller in scale than typical lithographic advertising posters.

    • Sarajevo 1984 Downhill Racer – Ismar Mujezinović, Original Olympics Poster

    Original 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics poster titled “Gorenje”, designed by Ismar Mujezinović and produced for the official Olympic organizing committee. This work is part of the series of posters commissioned for the XIV Winter Games, each highlighting either a sport or a sponsor associated with the event. Gorenje, one of Yugoslavia’s largest home appliance manufacturers, was a major corporate sponsor of the Sarajevo Olympics, and posters like this celebrated both national industry and international sport.

    The 1984 Winter Olympics were the first held in a socialist and Slavic-speaking country, with Sarajevo hosting athletes from 49 nations. Mujezinović, a Bosnian painter and graphic artist, created multiple official designs for these Games, including dynamic representations of alpine skiing, ski jumping, speed skating, and sponsor-related imagery. His bold, energetic style captured both the athleticism of the sports and the cultural pride of Yugoslavia in presenting itself on the world stage.

    This example was printed as an offset lithograph, professionally mounted on linen, and survives in excellent condition. It remains a significant piece of Olympic history and a collectible from one of the most memorable Games of the 20th century.

    Comments:
    Original poster for the 1994 Nice Jazz Festival, created by the French artist Razzia. The festival was held at the Arènes de Cimiez, the Roman amphitheatre above Nice that has long served as a cultural venue.

    Razzia (b. 1950) is known for his bold graphic style and for producing posters directly from his painted works. Since the 1980s he has been one of the few contemporary artists to maintain the tradition of the artistic poster, working for clients such as Louis Vuitton, Cointreau, and major cultural events. His association with the Nice Jazz Festival produced some of the most recognizable jazz imagery of the period.

    This large-format serigraph was printed for the Ville de Nice in connection with the 1994 edition of the festival. It is the first printing, in excellent condition.
