Circa 1990 original poster by Razzia for Slazenger Tennis - Bjorn Borg
By Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix–Dénériaz)
Located in PARIS, FR
The circa 1990 original poster by Razzia for Slazenger Tennis is a striking example of the artist’s signature style, blending luxury, sport, and bold graphic design. Known for his elegant and sophisticated approach to advertising, Razzia—whose real name is Gérard Courbouleix–Dénériaz—created some of the most recognizable promotional posters of the late 20th century, covering subjects from fashion to automobiles and sports. This Slazenger Tennis poster reflects the prestige and tradition associated with the Slazenger brand, one of the oldest and most respected names in tennis. Founded in 1881, Slazenger has long been linked to Wimbledon, professional tournaments, and classic sports aesthetics. The poster, likely featuring clean lines, refined composition, and a minimalist yet luxurious approach, captures the timeless elegance of tennis as both a competitive and lifestyle sport. Razzia’s work often evokes a sense of nostalgia and exclusivity, drawing inspiration from Art Deco and early 20th-century advertising posters. His technique—unlike modern digital design—relies on hand-painted artwork transformed into high-quality lithographs, adding a unique richness and depth to his compositions. As a collectible, this 1990s Slazenger Tennis poster is highly sought after by sports enthusiasts, tennis memorabilia collectors, and fans of Razzia’s artwork. It stands as a testament to Slazenger’s legacy in professional tennis and the enduring power of classic sports advertising. Sport - Roland Garros - Björn Borg Rally Posters...

1989 original poster Grand Prix de Paris Louis Vuitton Longchamp by Razzia
By Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix–Dénériaz)
Located in PARIS, FR
The 1989 original poster Grand Prix de Paris Louis Vuitton Longchamp by the celebrated artist Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix Dénériaz) is an iconic example of his distinctive style. Created to promote the Grand Prix de Paris, a prestigious horse racing event held at Longchamp Racecourse on June 25, 1989, the poster reflects both the grandeur of the event and the luxury synonymous with its sponsor, Louis Vuitton. The poster’s design is minimalist yet impactful, focusing on a rear view of a British guard, dressed in traditional red ceremonial uniform with a tall bearskin hat adorned with a blue plume. The guard is standing at attention, gazing over the scenic racetrack, which stretches into the background with a prominent windmill, a symbol often associated with Longchamp. This deliberate compositional choice centers the guard as a dignified observer, adding a ceremonial and stately quality to the event. The use of the guard in this imagery reflects the participation of the Irish Guards' Band, who performed during the event, a fact noted in the inscription at the bottom of the poster. The reference to the British monarchy's Queen’s Irish Guards adds to the prestige and international appeal of the race. The elegance of the poster reflects the intersection of royal tradition, horse racing, and high fashion. Razzia’s artistic approach is known for its clean lines, bold compositions, and a blend of Art Deco influences. In this poster, the striking contrast between the vibrant red of the guard’s uniform...
