Rare Vail Ski Poster
"Colorado - Ski Country USA"
Artist: Hal Shelton
Vail opened for the 1962-1963 season with 3 lifts. Hal Shelton painted this ski area map a few years later when Vail had a total of 7 lifts. Today, Vail has 32 lifts, 193 trails, and over 5,200 acres of terrain. What a conversation piece this will be in your ski chalet, cabin, or vacation home.
Here is a unique vintage ski poster. Hal Shelton is famous for his cartographic watercolors, and this collection is a nice example of the beauty of his work. His natural-color maps from the 1950's and 1960's were years ahead of their time.
This is a vintage original, NOT a modern reproduction. Authenticity is guaranteed. It is printed on high-quality, heavy poster paper. The colors are clear and bright, and the image quality is superb.
I am listing a nice collection of vintage original Colorado ski posters. Resorts include Aspen, Vail, Breckenridge, and Broadmoor.
Size: 21" x 30"
Condition: This poster is unused, and is in mint condition. It has been stored flat for over 38 years, and has never been rolled. It was made by LooArt Press, which is known for its quality work.
