A book, a passion, a cultural heritage
Come to Finland is a high quality coffee table book filled with vintage travel posters from Finland. The book is the result of a long and successful cultural history project.
So far the book has been published in five different language editions (with one of the editions being bilingual in Finnish and Swedish).
For over two years the project team dug for vintage posters in dusty archives, museums and contacted poster collectors all over the world. Read more about the Poster Hunters >>>

Finland = glamour, style and wilderness
Today many sharp brains try to figure out how Finland should brand itself. There is a lot of talk, but in the old days they did not only talk, they also created.They created an image of Finland as the country of glamour, trendiness and romance (we kid you not! One slogan was actually "Finland – land of romance").
