Original 'Apollo Stumpen' vintage Swiss cigar poster
Located in Spokane, WA
Original Swiss poster: Apollo Stumpen Cigars. Johannes Handschin created this Swiss poster. Swiss size of 35" x 49". Professional acid-free archival linen backed, ready to frame. The colors are vibrant and intense. Great colors. Rare original Swiss (Switzerland) vintage poster.
