This recently came my way. Indeed this is the first time I’ve encountered a large poster type version of the postcards we see every so often, and are so rare and saught after themselves. In remarkable good Condition other than one small nick , and the to be expected foxing.

A very rare piece indeed Jon - - - the postcard is also seldom offered for sale. Postcards for the 1929 Rally are generally very difficult to find. In my almost 50 years collecting i have managed to acquire just two genuine examples - - - beware most excellent copies abound especially on E-bay. -
Very nice! But it says in the corner "Band 4 (volume 4)" and "94" . This and the size makes me think it could come from a book on page 94. Could it be?

What a fantastic poster, Jon! Do you plan on getting it matted and framed?

I have an almost identical poster to yours, Jon, except mine has the number "91" instead of "94" in the margin. No UV glow on the paper.sigpicComment

I agree, ekrogh, though this last poster was issued for a later RPT -- no earlier than the 1934 event. I believe this design continued to be reproduced over the years ahead, for future RPTs.

Here is one of these that I just picked up. Obviously the color of the ink is different but the quality is superb. The printing is not pixelated at all and the paper doesn't glow.
Has anyone seen one of these prints in this color?
