About this poster
An original vintage poster for the tourist resort of Arosa with stickers of the flags of all nations on the suitcase. The idea was to get the whole world excited about winter sports in Arosa. In 1936, the Svastika was the official flag of Germany. The historic poster was designed by the master of tourism posters, Alex Walter Diggelmann, in 1936 and has become a rarity.
