Yosemite Winter Sports, the circa 1940s travel poster encouraging people to visit Yosemite National Park and promoting winter sports at the park. Note that this poster features a woman holding skis with an Ansel Adams photo of the Half Dome formation in the background.
Artist: Ansel Adams
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! We know that this poster was issued many times over the years, but we think it is very likely from the late 1930s or early 1940s. If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Also note that this is one of 11 wonderful travel and skiing related posters that were recently discovered in Canada after having sat undisturbed for many decades! We had only auctioned ONE of these posters one time before and the other 10 we had NEVER auctioned! All would benefit from restoration, but most are the kind that do not need a lot of restoration, and after being backed they will display wonderfully (and it is quite possible it will be many years before we again auction even one of these!).

Condition: good to very good. There are several light and fine creases scattered throughout the poster and it has some creases and tiny tears along portions of some edges. There is a tiny tear in the art of the mountain at upper center. After some proper restoration it should display well.
