1960's Coach Travel Poster by Harry Stevens
About the Item
Original English 1960's bus panel poster promoting coach excursions to the theatre. This rare poster would have been displayed in travel offices or in a bus or coach serving routes around Britain. Coach companies had a captive market before the advent of mass car ownership and these small panel posters were a useful advertising tool.
This striking travel poster, by Harry Stevens (1919 - 2008), illustrating characters from the theatre and pantomime, is full of humour and intense colours.
Harry Stevens was born in Manchester, UK, and became a freelance designer, joining the Society of Industrial Artists in 1955. He specialised in poster design for a wide variety of clients, most notably London Transport and the General Post Office. His work can be seen in The London Transport Museum and The Postal Museum.
The poster is professionally mounted on linen. This is a conservation process which cleans the poster and allows for ease of handling and framing. It is in very good condition - please see images for details.
The poster will be rolled and sent in a strong tube.
Free postage.
