1950 - All Our Colours to the Mast

As part of its public relations campaign, the European Recovery Programme sponsored an international poster contest on the theme, “Intra-European Co-operation for a Better Standard of Living”. Over ten thousand entries from thirteen countries were submitted in local country competitions from which the twenty-five award-winning posters were selected. Prominent graphic arts experts, each representing a different Marshall Plan country, made up the jury. First prize went to Reijn Ddirksen from The Netherlands.
