Original German Carl Eickhorn WWI Era Advertising Poster Cardstock Swords Knight

Description:
Rare Vintage Carl Eickhorn German Edged Weapons Advertising Board

Presenting a fascinating piece of historical advertising from the renowned German firm, Carl Eickhorn. This original poster, crafted from sturdy cardstock, showcases a striking image of a medieval knight in full armor, wielding a prominent sword, all rendered in a distinctive black, green, beige, and gold color palette.

The board prominently features the iconic Carl Eickhorn "C.E." squirrel logo and the text "FABRIK-MARKE" (Factory Mark), confirming its origin from this highly respected manufacturer. Carl Eickhorn is celebrated for its exceptional quality edged weapons, particularly military swords, bayonets, and daggers, produced from the late 19th century through the mid-20th century.

This piece served as an advertisement for their bladed products, as indicated by the multi-lingual text:

• BLANKEWAFFEN (German for Edged Weapons)
• ARMES BLANCHES (French for Edged Weapons)
• SWORDS (English)
• ARMAS BLANCAS (Spanish for Edged Weapons)

Given Carl Eickhorn's significant output of military and civilian edged weapons during the early 20th century, this advertising board is believed to originate from the **WWI era to the Interwar period**. Its multi-lingual format suggests a focus on international markets during that time. This is a must-have for collectors of German militaria, antique advertising, or historical weaponry.
