In a unique arrangement with the National Railway Museum in York, the
Poster to Poster series is an eight volume definitive collection of
British railway posters which showcases some of the greatest collections
of railway posters to be found anywhere in the world. Each volume is a
mixture of travel documentary, geographical and historical study,
graphic artists reference and poster database all interlinked using the
central theme of railway posters.
This 8th volume uses the National Collection to take a journey around
some wonderful European destinations such as France and Italy, which
both the British and foreign railway companies advertised, before
examining general British poster policy and the services the railways
offered, covering hotels, ferry, air and freight services and holiday
guides. The result is a stunning artistic guide to both continental
destinations and general advertising and their railway poster heritage.
