Geordie

Rare Scottish interest poster with an international twist as it comes from Russia with typically iconic artwork. Wee Geordie is an undersized lad who spends his savings on a body building course. So successful is he that he is chosen in later years to represent Britain in the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games and as a consequence wins gold in the hammer throw, wearing his kilt all the way, of course. This is the russian poster from the 1960 first release with wonderful artwork by Kheifits. Linen backed with restoration to the lower right corner.
