Hungarian Football Match Advertising Poster v Sunderland & Blackburn - Art Deco

From Edwardian Advertisement to Art Deco Print

This original 1913 Ferencvárosi Torna Club advertising poster has been carefully reinterpreted as a high-quality Art Deco print, drawing out the bold geometry, strong colour blocks, and sense of movement already latent in the original design. While remaining faithful to the historical composition, typography, and period atmosphere, the artwork has been refined to reflect the visual language that would come to define European sporting posters in the inter-war years.

The result is not a modern re-imagining, but a stylistic elevation: an homage that bridges eras, allowing a rare piece of Edwardian football advertising to be appreciated through the disciplined elegance of Art Deco design. Produced to museum-grade standards, the finished print preserves the original poster’s narrative power while presenting it in a form suited to contemporary collectors and display.

In doing so, the print connects Sunderland AFC’s landmark 1913 Central European tour not only to football history, but to the broader evolution of European graphic art—capturing a moment when sport, culture, and modernity were beginning to move in step.
