1960's London Travel Poster

About the Item

Lovely colours in this original English 1960's Royal Blue coach panel poster promoting express coach services to and from London. This rare poster would have been displayed in a UK travel agents or in a bus or coach serving routes around Britain. Coach firms had a captive market before the advent of mass car ownership and these small panel posters were a reliable form of advertising. Royal Blue had a near monopoly on routes throughout south-western England which included popular holiday destinations in Dorset, Devon and Cornwall. This poster has an illustration of a Yeoman of the Guard, or Beefeater, at the Tower of London - a castle in the centre of the city housing the crown jewels. The poster is in good condition with a slight nick on the left edge. It is linen backed to allow ease of handling and framing. Free postage.

  • 1960s Double-Sided School Poster by Oge-Hachette, The Farm and The Train Station
    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 ...
