Travel

Gorgeous travel posters from the golden age of travel.

An advertising poster should immediately connect with you even if you’re passing by. There usually isn’t much time to impart the information and often the style and look of the poster has to almost do the job of the words you may not have time to take in. These posters for travel are prime examples and still look striking today.

The advertising departments of big railway and airline companies were not only competing against each other but also the cheap coach and bus companies. The destinations that the individual companies offered became key.
