Graphic Design & The History of the Winter Olympic Games
With the Winter Olympics now going full steam ahead in Vancouver, I thought it might be interesting to take a look back at the history of poster design throughout the history of the Winter Olympics. It’s pretty interesting to see the progression of design throughout the past century in relation to the geographical location of the winter games. Which is your favourite?
