We invite you to sponsor a poster from the extensive collection of the Austrian National Library.
From stylish shoes and exotic trips to sleek cars and laundry detergent - the Austrian National Library’s archive contains countless motifs from the history of advertising.
Help preserve Austria’s contemporary history!
By becoming a sponsor, you support the Austrian National Library in the restoration and conservation of this and many other unique objects. The advertising posters, lovingly designed with a touch of humor, evoke deeply personal memories and are therefore particularly well-suited as gift sponsorships. Sponsorships are gifts that last a lifetime. Whether for birthdays, wedding or anniversaries, you will find the perfect piece in the Austrian National Library’s collections for every occasion.
For a donation of 500 euros
All posters and the request form can be found here or click below on "Choose your poster".
Your donation is one-time and tax-deductible!
We gladly advise you with the selection of your sponsorship or with the search for a specific design!
