Classic Posters and publicity material from the golden era of the Great Western Railway - 1923 to 1947. Illustrated in full colour.
From the grouping in 1923 to Nationalisation in 1947, the GWR produced posters, handbills, tourist guides and timetable booklets with superb illustrated covers, many designed by prominent artists such as Charles Mayo and Frank Newbould. This is a collection of the many covers and posters produced with background details and historic information. A nostalgic look back to railway publicity at its best.
