Ice Skating/Calgary Olympics. USA

This original vintage poster promotes the 1988 XV Winter Olympics in Calgary, specifically celebrating the sport of ice skating. At its center, the word "ICE-SKATING" is playfully broken up and integrated with pink silhouettes of figure skaters in motion, creating a sense of fluid, artistic energy against the bright teal background.

Rows of repeating skate icons in varying colors—yellow, orange, pink, and dark blue—frame the central text, giving the piece a pop-art quality that was popular in late-80s graphic design. The official logo for the Calgary Games, a stylized snowflake that mirrors the Canadian maple leaf, sits prominently at the bottom above the event’s title.

The fine print at the base reveals its purpose as a piece of promotional media for the American television broadcast. It notes that the games were aired on ABC-TV and sponsored by Northwestern Mutual Life, serving as a reminder of the massive commercial and media presence that defined the Calgary Olympics.
