swierzy - Waldemar Swierzy Poster, Kieler Woche - Unknown

This poster was designed by the renowned Polish artist (*) Waldemar Swierzy for the Kieler Woche, considered one of the world's largest sailing events. It seems to be a re-edition. Year of print is therefore unknown. Kieler Woche attracts approximately 3 million guests annually, featuring numerous naval units from over 10 countries (as of 2012), over 3,500 sailors from 36 countries (as of 2012), and more than a dozen city delegations.
 While the actual date of this reproduction is unknown, this is an incredible gem for collectors. (*) Waldemar Świerzy (1931 - 2013) was an internationally acclaimed Polish graphic designer specializing in commercial graphic images and poster art. His work is part of the MoMA collection in New York and has garnered significant awards, including the Grand Prix Tolouse-Lautrec in Paris in 1959, 1st prize at the Sao Paulo Biennial in 1969, Silver Medal at the 4th International Poster Biennale in Warsaw in 1972, Gold Medal at the 6th International Poster Biennale in Warsaw in 1976, 1st Prize at the 2nd International Biennial of Posters in Lahti, Finland, in 1977, Gold Medals in 1965, 1971, 1975, 1989, and Silver Medals in 1977, 1987, 1995, 1999 at the Polish Poster Biennials in Katowice, Poland.
