THE WRITING IS ON THE WALL

I love posters!

Always have! 

My Dad was a commercial artist before WWII and he passed on his own passionate love of poster art: the medium and the message...

Here's a cache of great vintage posters designs down the years from a fabulous upcoming auction at New York's Swann Auction Galleries.

All we need now is a lottery win!

A gorgeous collection with a rather cheeky final choice... :o)
I have a fondness for Railway and theatre posters but it's usually vicarious due to lack of wall space (and size of piggy bank but the lack of wall space precludes too much stressing over the latter )

A glorious gallery - though I'm not too sure about the last one! Have you got any examples of your father's work that you would like to share? (RGP)

RGP: Dad's work is mostly in store but, yes, I'll try to do that...
