Thanks to agreement of Josef Flejsar’s family, we have begun categorizing this very significant poster inheritance. Publication of 350 poster on our webpages is first outcome of our documentation activities. It will continue in next few months and should lead to own website dedicated to complete work of this extraordinary czech poster artist.
