After our post about the ski companies of 1984, we ran this item about Swans’ ski brochure from 1979/80.
Of course we knew there were older brochures, and now thanks to John Ward at Erna Low, we think we’ve found the oldest – this marvelous example from 1948.
And of course, if you can beat this, then please mail us the evidence…

Got an older one for you – but you’ll have to go & visit the Ski Club of Great Britain library… They’ve got some in there from Lunn’s Tours from around the 1915 mark if I remember rightly…

Thank for that tip. I’ll have to track it down!

Ski Independence have just added an album to their Facebook page with all the old brochure cover shots dating back to 1993 and there are some classic shots! Not quite 1948 but worth a look all the same.
