A 1972 Vintage Linenbacked Polish Circus Poster (measures 27" x 38 1/2" [69 x 98 cm]) (Learn More) Cyrk (literally translates to "Circus"), the Polish circus poster featuring great artwork. Contemporary Polish circus posters emerged in 1962 as a genre of the Polish School of Posters. They are characterized by their display of aesthetic qualities such as painterly gestures, linear design, hand-lettering, metaphors, humor, and vibrant colors. Usually based on a single theme and meant to be advertisements, they were created in an attempt to interest the passerby in the upcoming circus. However, they proved so popular that some were reprinted and sold directly to the public and we list those as commercial posters. Artist: Wiktor Gorka Important Added Info: UPDATED 12/03/2013: Note that a knowledgeable collector pointed out that this is a 1972 printing of the 1969 poster.
