Hi,

I'm a big fan of zoo posters, especially the ones in "good ol' vintage" style, like Ludwig Hohlwein's "Tierpark Hellabrunn" posters or Zoo posters from Tierpark Friedrichsfelde, Kopenhagen Zoo, Brookfield Zoo etc., but also newer versions like the Prague Zoo posters by Michal Cihlar. Does anyone happen to know where to get the following poster? It's obviously from Chicago's Brookfield Zoo...

In case it hasn't be mentioned before: probably one of the best spots in the world in terms of zoo posters and other zoo memorabilia (unfortunately, for most Non-German speakers, most books offered there are in German...): The Pavillion of the Fördergemeinschaft von Tierpark und Zoo Berlin e. V. in Tierpark Berlin-Friedrichsfelde, Berlin's second zoo. Opened during the weekend almost all year round, this little shop, close to the dingo exhibit, has a lot to offer-among others, a vast array of different "art deco" zoo posters/prints, old zoo guidebooks and various other items, not just from the Tierpark/Zoo Berlin, but also from other zoos worldwide.
