Product information

Poster produced by Australian National Travel Association c1956 advertising the British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Perth, Western Australia. They were the second Commonwealth Games to be held in Australia, (Sydney had hosted the Games in 1938.) and were held between the 22nd of November and the 1st of December 1962. Artist Douglas Annand, 1903–1976 was born in Queensland, Australia. His distinctly individual style set new standards of sophistication in graphic design in Australia during the 1930s and in the late 50s he created this elegant black swan poster. It was reproduced often over the next ten years and in 1968 won a bronze medal at the International Poster Competition in Milan.

This is truly an outstanding quality poster. It is printed on Fuji crystal archive photographic paper and is by no means a flimsy poster.
