I'm fairly sure that'll be one word (despite the odd spacing) UPPSALA. I don't know anything about the city or its architecture, however. Mister Aitch: I like the typefaces on these posters, as well as the designs, nice fat Deco-ish lettering. Hi Tobias. I’m fairly sure that’ll be one word (despite the odd spacing) UPPSALA.

For those of you who would be interested, the text on the poster with the church towers in the background reads "VPP Sala March-May 1918 Exhibition of old church art" The abbreviation "VPP" is unknown to me, but "Sala" is the name of a town in Sweden. Perhaps some more knowledgeable Swede could confirm that the church depicted is the dome church in Uppsala? Best regards, Tobias from Stockholm Thanks for a great blog.

“VPP Sala

The abbreviation “VPP” is unknown to me, but “Sala” is the name of a town in Sweden.

Perhaps some more knowledgeable Swede could confirm that the church depicted is the dome church in Uppsala?

Best regards,
