This vintage, French classroom poster is published by Rossignol and is double sided. One side shows a fabulous village grocer's shop and the other has a view of a hard working baker in the back of his shop.

The grocers print is a detailed view of a classic French shop in the early 1960's. Women and children are shown buying vegetables, sweets, flour and oil whilst the grocer and his wife serve in the shop. The background is full of detail from clogs to dried fish, cheeses to hams. You can almost smell the shop! The reverse shows the back of a french bakers, with men loading bread into an oven whilst customers buy baguettes at the counter. Again, the attention to detail is fantastic.

The Rossignol posters were printed on a heavy, off-white paper and have softer colours and a mass of detail that shows French life of the time. All the posters listed are originals and served their time in classrooms. Some have the teacher's name pencilled in the border. They date from the 1940's to the 1960's.

This original French poster is in excellent vintage condition. There are some  pinholes to the corners and nibbles to the edges. The main prints are clear with good colours.

These posters measure 76cm by 56cm and are printed on a good quality thick paper/card. There are several different designs available in the shop.

Sent rolled in a cardboard tube.
