More Förlag Nordisk Konst

Förlag Nordisk Konst published some of the most interesting postcards of the Swedish silent cinema. We love them. Nordisk Konst was a Nordic company, at least it also had a Copenhagen branch besides its branch in Stockholm. Among the Scandinavian postcard publishers, Nordisk did a lot of the film promotion postcards On 9 March 2018, we did a post with 15 sepia Nordisk postcards of Swedish films of the 1910s and 1920s. On 3 January 2022, EFSP presented 15 Nordisk postcards of Hollywood stars including a card of the most legendary director of the American silent cinema. On 8 January 2022 followed a post with 15 Scandinavian stars of the silent era. Jean Ritsema made a list with the postcards by this legendary publisher at Ross Postcards. Ivo Blom searched on Scandinavian sites for more Nordisk Konst postcards. Here are 20 of his new finds.
