About The Poster: This poster was created to encourage travel and tourism to Mont-Doré. According to a charmingly mangled translation on the travel site of the area, “Next to the Dordogne river springs and near the Puy de Sancy volcano, Le Mont Dore is a big mountain zone village with multiple aspects. Real paradise for hikers during summertime and becomes a ski resort in winter. And as air and water are always clean, Le Mont-Dore is also a famous thermal resort. Come and discover all our treasures !”

Voila! Who could resist such an incredible description?

Poster was recently linen backed and is in overall excellent condition. From a private collection.
