    Olympic picture of AH - Help needed

    Hi I was offered to buy an item but the seller has no means of taking pictures
    does anyone has any idea what it could be?

    Its described as a wooden picture of AH 29x22cm. Backside is marked Tarso, Cebr. Obpacher AB, Munchen

    Something like this:
    Tarso
    OOO
    Cebr. Obpacher AB
    Munchen

    Acording to the seller it was given to his parents that participated in some sort of dance show during the 1936 Olympics.

    Any information is greatly appriciated.

    Best regards

    Sounds like that one (could not find a bigger foto of it):

    Have seen some of those over the years, IMO to many to be olympic related.

    Also I know that real fotos of AH in genuine silver frames were given to each olympic gold medal winner.


    Edit: Here is one for sale, bigger fotos:

        This is Ulrics description

        "A scarce 'Kampzeit' period wood chromolithograph portrait of Adolf Hitler from around 1930. We are unsure of the exact type of printing process undertaken to commission this piece, but it would seem to be an unusual form of chromolithography. The printing is direct onto a tablet of wood and is sealed probably using a heat process. The effect is that the portrait looks as though it has been painted on wood. the reverse in plain wood with a brass wall hanger to the top. Overall very good to excellent condition with light ageing in places. Size: 29cm x 22cm."


        If anyone has any more info it would be great. I will post some pictures of mine once it arrives

        Thanks
