Locarno, the 1944 [see below] Swiss travel poster promoting tourism to the Swiss Riviera and featuring art of the city of Locarno by Dan Buzzi. We have heard that this poster was used again in 1946 and in the early 1950s. Apparently, the 1944 version simply has "Locarno" at the top and has the printer as "Lithos A. Marsens", while the 1946 version looks the same and has "Lithos R. Marsens" as a printer, and the 1950s has "Suisse - Swiss Riviera - Schweiz" below the title.

Artist: Dan Buzzi

Condition: good. The poster has become somewhat brittle with age and there is a 6" tear in the middle of the bottom edge and a few 2" and smaller tears around the edges of the poster (repaired with tape from the back). There is some surface paper loss in the lower left corner of the poster. Other than the defects around the edges, the poster is in pretty nice condition.
