State Opera Berlin Five Year Plan
Original vintage propaganda poster issued by East Germany (Deutsche Demokratische Republik DDR / German Democratic Republic GDR) under the title Bauten des Funfjahrplanes / Buildings of the Five Year Plan featuring a view of the historic Staatsoper Berlin State Opera (built 1741-1743), showing people walking along the Unter den Linden boulevard with a few cars on the road and light snow on the rooftops and trees, the text below in German - The State Opera in Berlin emerged from the rubble of Hitler's barbaric war in its classic beauty thanks to the cultural policy of our workers' and peasants' power. In the future it will no longer serve the amusement of rich idlers, but rather the recreation and edification of the working people through creations from our national cultural heritage and operas by domestic and foreign masters. Good condition, minor creasing, minor staining, small tears.

FAQs
More information about our posters and service.
Are your posters originals?
All our antique and vintage posters, books, maps and prints listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity.
What is a lithograph?
Practically all of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves carving each colour of the image onto a piece of stone. The poster sheet is then imprinted consecutively with a stone slab for each colour, creating a stunning and rich image.
With the exception of silk printing, we believe that other printing techniques do not deliver the same impact of colour as lithography.
Where do you deliver to?
We ship posters worldwide rolled in shock-resistant and hard wearing tubes. Unless specified otherwise, delivery is free within the UK and standard international delivery is £25 for orders placed via our website.
