Description
This is a school poster by Swiss Artist Eugen Hartung (the creator of Alfred Mainzer) dating from 1935 from a series of Road Safety Posters. Eugen Hartung was appointed by the Swiss Teachers Association and the Automobile Club of Switzerland to design these posters which would then be used for discussion in classrooms. I think that Eugen Hartung was quite the comedian, the poster is very slap stick and reminds me of a Laurel and Hardy or Charlie Chaplin comedy. We have the guy on the motorbike with an umbrella who has gone through the barriers and is in the path of an oncoming train, the man on the horse and cart having a little snooze, I could go on but you will probably want to discover all of these potential catastrophes by yourself.
A lovely present for any collector of Eugen Hartung’s work, vintage automobile collector or anyone interested in the social history of the pre World War II era.
Condition report:
This poster is in very good condition. There is a slight bit of yellowing around the edges but that would be expected since it is almost 90 years old.

We have a 14-day return guarantee for orders from individual sellers, within the UK and European Union. View full policy.
I usually ship items within 1 to 3 working days of receiving an order. However if there is a bank holiday in Switzerland that is diffent to the UK or some other delay I will inform the buyer.
Please message me your phone number and email address for the shipping documents.
Swiss Post is the shipping provider that I use, it is the best and most economical option in Switzerland. All packages are sent with a tracking number. For smaller boxes if you would like a slightly cheaper price (it usually works out at about £5) I can ship without a tracking number but you will need to contact me directly to let me know. If there is no tracking number and the parcel gets lost we will not be able to find it or get reimbursed so I strongly recommend keeping the tracking number. If your parcel is lost or stolen without a tracking number I am not responsible.
All items over the value of £135 will be taxed by the Customs in Great Britain and Customs Duties are the responsibility of the buyer.
As much as possible I reuse packaging for all my shipments. Selling Vintage means that all the items in my shop have a different shape and shipping requirement. I have a very diverse stock of clean boxes in different sizes to accommodate this. I usually double box delicate items and for this I use the strongest boxes which are the right size for the job. Some of these boxes may have labels and writing on the outside, but the aim is to get the item to you as safely as possible and recycle as much as possible so reusing boxes makes sense.

Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
At Vinterior, we understand that sometimes a piece may not be the perfect fit once it's in your home. That's why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return any item within 14 days from the date of delivery for any reason.
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.

Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
