Background information on the history of school wall charts:
The idea to upgrade every day school life by using pictures was supported in the late 18th century by Johann Bernhard Basedow. In 1774 he published a four-volume book "Elementarwerk" which combined pictures, text and information with merely hundred copperplates. Modern printing methods enabled the spread from rich private schools to rural grade schools. From 1820-1836 the oldest mentioned series of wall charts were published with the range of six booklets including 63 large sized charts. The rising 20th century was the golden age for publishers printing wall charts. Artists Masterly performed pictures which combined the subject-specific standards of a scientist with the standards given by an educator and finally created a magnificent art work.

Original circa 1970 travel poster breathtaking skyline of Hong Kong
Located in PARIS, FR
This original circa 1970 travel poster captures the breathtaking skyline of Hong Kong's Central District at dusk, showcasing the city's vibrant energy as lights illuminate Victoria Harbour. The high-rise buildings, bustling waterfront, and iconic junks dotting the harbor embody Hong Kong’s rapid urbanization and economic boom during the mid-20th century.
The poster design features a striking aerial photograph, framed by a muted beige border that enhances the dramatic cityscape. At the top, bold red Chinese calligraphy spells out "香港" (Hong Kong), providing an elegant cultural touch. The bottom is anchored by a strong, modern black “HONG KONG” typography, reinforcing the city’s bold and cosmopolitan identity.
This vintage piece reflects Hong Kong’s transformation into a global financial powerhouse during the 1970s. Central District, the heart of the city’s business and commercial hub, became a symbol of progress, attracting international trade, banking, and luxury developments.
A true collector’s item, this poster is a timeless representation of Hong Kong’s skyline before its modern skyscraper boom. It encapsulates the charm of old Hong Kong...
