In 1972 the Munich Olympic Games had two sets of official posters commissioned, the Art Series and the Sports Series. The secret is now out that the Framers at the Custard Factory have a fantastic selection of Oti Archer original 1972 Olympic prints and are ready to share them with the world.

The Art Series was commissioned as an attempt by the Organizing Committee to invite famous artists to express their ideas on the Munich Olympic Games and human movement.

The Sports Series posters were commissioned and used for advertising the Munich Olympic Games.  Extra large posters were used as an aesthetic way to direct the public to the various sports venues. The visual image of the sport became the international language to replace German, English and French language signs so that foreign visitors could easily find their way by following the colourful posters that were placed all over the city.
