The locals enter contests, not sure where the Lange Girls come from but they seem to actually ski also.
The model in the Lange Locals is someone we know. In fact, we had an opportunity to get "those boots" a few years ago. Perhaps we should have snagged them for a give away.
I made a baby quilt for their first born 1 1/2 years ago.



While I know these advertisements exist, I thought this was "Ski talk at a higher level".
I like it that we can look back on these posters. They are a part of ski heritage.

Maybe she could sign some copies of the posters?

Love the Lange posters. Great to be able to see all of them together. Thanks for shearing.
I was wondering if I can download them from somewhere for printable version. Do not need to be poster size, A4 or even less would be perfect.
Thanks.

I don’t remember seeing these athletes in the thread.

I have a personally signed Resi poster somewhere...

Okay....
I have grown up with Those posters and i guess i should have kept mine....
So the question is- Where could one....purchase the entire collection?

I have seen a couple of them at Vintage Ski World- But does anyone know a secret stash of this timeless classics?

They now differentiate between Lange Athlete, Lange Girl, and Local Lange Girl.
Mancuso, Tina Maze, Dominic Gisin are athletes. The locals enter contests, not sure where the Lange Girls come from but they seem to actually ski also.

There were words on these posters?!? :huh:

I knew that Lange had the posters but didn't know that they had so many. One of the shops I worked in was an authorized Lange dealer and a few of the posts would hang in the work shop but not many made it to the sales floor. We had a lot of woman customers and one of the other managers was a woman, so they stayed in the back workshop.
