Published by the Minister of Public Works and Transportation and the Commissioner General for Tourism, the poster soothingly reminds the post-World War II English-speaking world-at-large that French seaside resorts are once again open for business. A very real-and thoroughly enticing-feeling of calm saturates the Picart le Doux creation |
