1960's London Travel Poster
About the Item
Original English 1960's bus panel poster promoting coach tours around Britain. This rare poster would have been displayed in a travel bureau or on a bus or coach serving routes around the UK. Coach firms had a captive market before the advent of mass car ownership and these small panel posters were a useful form of advertising.
The travel poster colourfully illustrates a couple on a sightseeing tour using their cameras to record the sights. Although unsigned, it is probably by Harry Stevens, who produced posters for a wide variety of clients including London Transport and the independent coach companies.
This would have been a generic poster used by many of the county bus companies run by The Tilling Group.
The poster is in very good condition and professionally mounted on linen. This is a conservation process which cleans the poster and allows for ease of handling and display.
Poster will be sent rolled in a secure tube.
Free shipping.
