This has the publisher's name Cooperation Pedagogique Montmorillon Vienne printed on both sides. The Pedagogical Cooperation was created in 1946 by a teacher from Vienne, André Rossignol. He first published a pedagogical booklet sold by subscription to teachers in France and Belgium, covering multiple subjects including history. He moved to Montmorillon in 1953. Montmorillon is a Book town and it is branded as the "City of Writing". The name Editions Rossignol appeared in 1954 and these read Collections Rossignol so these probably pre date this time. As early as 1948, André Rossignol published wall maps printed on both sides. Then colour posters were published in the form of a large format plate in a wooden frame. This poster comes from a series of numbered panels depicting the history of France, geography and natural sciences. Many of them illustrate scenes from everyday life and serve as speech boards for small classes. These series of pedagogical charts have left their mark on generations of teachers and students. This one is unframed, it will be shipped in a poster tube, not folded. This would add a fantastic French flair to any home or office and could be easily put in a frame.
