This is a vintage original and rare official poster issued by the Republic of Irak, Summer Resorts and Tourism Service. This poster is attributed to Iraqi artist Hafidh al-Droubi and isn’t dated but was likely issued in the late 1950s or early 1960s when the country was ruled by nationalist leader Abdul-Karim Qasim. This poster features English, French and German language text with the title IRAK THE LAND OF A THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHT. The lower edge is printed "COPYRIGHT AND COLORS BY VICKY BAGHDAD " and “PRINTED IN SWITZERLAND ATAR GENEVA”.
This vintage original poster shows just slight handling wear. The poster has no tape but there are a couple slight small tape stains on the back of the poster. Overall condition is very good. Please see our other listings for more vintage Iraq travel posters.
