Osaga Vintage 1970s 80s Rare Promo Desk Counter Placard “For the Human Race” Advertising Display

Rare vintage Osaga promotional placard featuring the brand’s iconic yellow-and-green logo alongside the classic slogan: “for the human race.” Likely used as a store display, dealer counter piece, or promotional giveaway during the late 1970s to early 1980s, this collectible captures the authentic look and feel of Osaga’s advertising during the golden age of running.

Constructed from sturdy plastic with a fold-out design, the placard was intended to sit upright on a flat surface, making it ideal for retail counters, shoe displays, or event tables. Today, it makes a unique display piece for collectors of vintage sneakers, retro sportswear memorabilia, or Osaga advertising history.

An uncommon and unusual survivor from Osaga’s original promotional era, this desk placard is both a nostalgic throwback and a highly collectible piece of 1970s and 80s running culture ephemera.

UPDATE: The Osaga Revival is Here! The cult-favorite running shoe brand, and early Nike rival, from the ’70s and ’80s have returned, thanks to the founders’ family. The KT-26, Moscow 80, and other retro runners are back in stock.
