Sold. I'm out looking for more but in the meantime head to the shop for more lovely things at www.handmadeandvintage.co.uk

This vintage French Classroom Print dates from the 1950's and is by Helene Poirie. It's a lithograph print with beautiful bright colours printed on a thick, off-white paper and is a unique print for the walls of a vintage inspired room.

The bottom corner has the signature of Helene Poirie, a French illustrator who worked from the mid 1940's to the early 1970's on a variety of books and educational materials. There is an original school stamp on the reverse to show the poster was used in a school in Le Harvre

This poster is number 9 from the Editions Bourrelier series "Images de la Vie" This one is called Le Marche/The Market and shows a busy town market in full swing. This print has strong colours and a bold graphic style. It looks striking framed up and on a wall.

The colours are good and the overall condition of this 50+ year old poster is excellent. There are nibbles to the edges and a small tear to the top which has been taped on the reverse. I genuinely don't mind this and I don't think it will show once framed. Have a look at the pictures above for details.

The poster measures 75cm x 55cm overall - the image is 72cm x 52cm.

These Helene Poirie prints are increasingly hard to find and are rare survivors of a bygone age. They look stunning framed and on a wall. This original vintage poster is sent unframed, rolled in a strong cardboard tube.
