One sheet, vintage poster
for the Ski School of Seefeld
in Tyrol, Austria, featuring legendary alpine ski world champion Anton "Toni" Seelos. The poster was designed by Arthur Zelger in the 1950s.
Toni Seelos was an Austrian alpine ski champion credited with inventing the parallel turn technique. While he was a world champion, he was ineligible for the Olympics due to his professional status. He went on to become a renowned ski coach, training other notable athletes.
Toni Sailer
The name Toni Sailer, also a famous Austrian skier, is often associated with vintage ski posters, but he is a different person from Toni Seelos. Toni Sailer was a triple Olympic gold medalist at the 1956 Winter Games and a world champion. He was also known as a movie star. |
