We mentioned Hungarian illustrator and photographer Emery Revesz-Biro last week and said we’d dig up some more work by him. Well, here’s another of his pieces—a travel poster he did circa 1930. Biro was respected in his own time, but we doubt even his originals sold for anything close to what his reprints fetch today. This one, which is in less-than-flawless condition and isn’t exceedingly rare, goes for $1,200. Which means that, sadly, posting it is the closest we’ll ever get to owning it. Three more unaffordable Biros below.

Cover and assorted pages from Paris Plaisirs, published in France in October 1932, with a hand-tinted cover shot from Emery Revesz-Biro, one of the eminent European photographers and poster artists of the day. More on Paris Plaisirs, and Revesz-Biro later.
