The Munich 1972 Olympic Posters, a complete collection of 30 works

Located in London, GB

The extremely rare, complete collection of 28 artists original graphics, the first signed edition before the second poster edition of 4000, with varying edition numbers including Artist’s Proofs, from the total edition of 200, each hand signed and numbered or inscribed, 1969 - 1972, printed on varying papers, published by the Organising Committee for the Games of the XXth Olympiad and F.

(30 works) The 1972 Olympic Committee commissioned 28 international artists to each produce an original print for the Munich Games that year.
