1960's Bristol Greyhound Travel Poster

About the Item

Original English 1960's coach panel poster by Studio Seven promoting Express Coach Services from London Victoria to Bristol, Bath and Weston-Super-Mare via Newbury, Marlborough and Chippenham. This colourful and rare poster would have been displayed in a travel bureau or on a bus or coach serving routes around the UK. Coach companies like Greyhound Motors had a captive market before the advent of mass car ownership and these small panel posters were a useful advertising tool. Formed in 1921, Greyhound Motors operated buses in Bristol and a coach service started to London in 1925 when the company became known as Bristol Greyhound. Although a member of the Tilling Group and nationalised in 1948, Bristol Greyhound managed to keep its identity until 1970 when National introduced its corporate white livery and the respected identity of Bristol Greyhound was lost. Studio Seven produced some stunning posters for both rail and coach services in the 1950's and 1960's. This poster is in good condition and has been linen backed for ease of handling and framing. It will be rolled and posted in a strong tube. Free postage.

    Located in Miami, FL
    Very decorative double-sided poster from Oge-Hachette, depicting the joys of life during the summertime and a visit to the hospital. This vintage wall decoration has wonderful details. Produced in France in the 1960s as educational tools for school children. Would be great in a classroom. This poster titles are "La Ferme and La Gare/The Farm and The Train Station. The item remains is very good condition. Would look great framed. Could be placed in a clear frame hanging in an open area for viewing on both sides. When arriving in class in the morning, the pupil discovered the lesson of the day to be taught, thanks to the educational poster/board hung on the wall by the teacher. Each was numbered and was part of a series developing a theme. For example geography, history or science with the famous object lessons! In general, the poster consisted of drawings that were at once schematic, figurative and very colorful which captured the attention of schoolchildren ...
