Title: Degelow's leaping stag
Post by: Jamo on May 15, 2013, 08:42:41 PM

I saw this listing over at ebay tonight:

(http://www.joachims-bilder.de/galerie0067/bilder/Sanahohl12i1.jpg)

Advertising for Dr. Lahmann´s Sanatorium, design by famous graphic artist Ludwig Hohlwein

Apparently it is dated 1916. Look familiar?

What do you make of that?

Interesting thread from The Aerodrome back in 2008:

It's dated 1916 and is also printed in Russian?  I'd be interested in finding out the reason for that! Thanks for posting.

I think the connection between the sanatorium logo and Degelow's Pfalz is pretty well known -- I think it is mentioned in the WS Datafile if I am not mistaken?

anyway a cool find!

The russian imperial family were guests there before the outbreak of the First World War.  ;)

It is as well described in Kilduff's book on Degelow.
