This poster was created by the American watercolor artist, John Gallucci (1918 – 2009) in 1979 and was commissioned by the Winter Olympic Organizing Committee. It promoted and commemorated the ski events held in the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics. These were the Olympics when the underdog American Hockey Team won the Olympic Gold Medal in the famed "Miracle on Ice" game. This poster is hand-signed by the artist.

John Gallucci attended Syracuse University and later New York University with studies in Fine Art. He was a recognized watercolorist and a Signature Member of the American Watercolor Society 1953. He was an educator in the Lake Placid area for most of his career and was chosen to represent his home with a group of 1980 Winter Olympic Posters.

  • If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

  • The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
