This vintage, French classroom poster is published by Rossignol and is double sided. One side shows a busy train station and the other has a view of a od car mechanics in a garage.

The train station shows both electric and steam trains at a station platform. Families, couples and indivduals fill the scene alongside a porter or two and various venors of drinks and papers. The reverse shows a fantastic garage scen with a car owner and the manager looking on whilst a mechanic works on a car on the ramp. Other mechanics are working away whilst in the background a pump attendant is filling a car.

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 good vintage condition. The main prints are clear with good colours but there are some pinholes to the corners and nibbles to the edges. The bottom of the print has two small holes and a tear that extends to the picture. Have a look at the photos above but bear in mind that these really will flatten out under glass.

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. Postage is £3.60 in the UK.
