Brownbridge (flourished 1930s - 1940s)
Boat Race at the Dorchester (1939)
Lithographic brochure
15 x 19.5 cm
From a small archive of works by Brownbridge, a member of the Society of Industrial Artists.
A design for a poster advertising the Dorchester's dinner after the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race. The artist has built his design around dark and light blues, to represent the colours of Oxford and Cambridge respectively.
Brownbridge's design is marvellously 1930s, from the boldly decorative typeface to the whimsically glamorous guests and their waiters floating below the invitation. Boat Race dinners in London are rather different today; at any rate, prices are not normally advertised as 'excluding Wines and Cigars'.
Society of Industrial Artists correspondance (photographed above) is not included; please enquire separately.

Hans Schleger 'Zero' (1898-1976) London Transport Bus Stop Poster Original Vintage Lithographic poster Printed for London Transport Working with Edward Johnson's special typeface created for London Transport, Hans Schleger - or Zero as he signed himself - adopted the famous roundel used by London Underground for use at Bus Stops. Born in Germany, Schleger was an influential graphic designer. After serving during the First World War, he studied at the Berlin Kunstgewerbeschule, being taught by Emil Orlik. The same year Walter Gropius founded the Bauhaus at Weimar and Schleger learned the same principles of breaking down the barriers between architecture, design, fine art and craft. A firm believer in the Bauhaus principles of simplicity in design and reduction to essentials, these may be seen in the clean lines of the roundel. In 1924 he moved to New York, applying Modernism to American advertising, and then returned to Berlin in 1929 working for the British advertising agency Crawfords, where he met Edward McKnight Kauffer who introduced him to Jack Beddington the head of advertising at Shell Mex...Category

Hans Schleger 'Zero' (1898-1976) London Transport Coach Stop Poster Screenprint poster c. 1970 16x17.8 cm Printed for London Transport These posters were designed to be used as temporary stops when the usual stop required amendment for instance owing to road works or similar events. Printed on paper they were designed to be posted up at the alternative site, possibly over a different sort of stop (bus stop, coach stop, request stop, etc.).
