About the Item

To see our other original vintage posters, scroll down to "More from this Seller" and below it click on "See all from this Seller" - or send us a message if you cannot find the poster you want. Charles Paine (1895 - 1967) Boat Race 1921 Lithograph 102 x 64 cm Signed upper right in plate. Charles Paine's iconic 1921 poster encourages the use of the London Underground in order to view the Boat Race. The slick design, with one boat's stern disappearing from the frame and the other boat's bow entering it (and desperate to catch up), alongside the strikingly Art Deco typeface, mark the poster as an excellent example of 1920s graphic style. Charles Paine was a versatile and prolific designer, who drew on his training in stained glass to create bold, structured and highly stylised lithographs for a variety of companies. This decorative and brightly-coloured map illustrates the various county regiments of Great Britain, with a border of regimental badges.
