Railway Posters by Thierry Favre

Railway Posters is the story of train travel through the posters of American and European railway companies. The inventive graphics created by the poster artists convey the excitement and nostalgia that accompany today's perceptions of train travel; taking the reader on a journey from their first experience of trains as miniature sets in their family home to the necessity of train travel in their adult life. This large-format book showcases the beautiful posters in all their splendour as well as providing an historical commentary. Features posters by artists including Cassandre, Alesi, Dorival, Otto Ernst, Fix-Masseau, Villemot and Zenobel.
Railway Posters dabbles in the history and the golden age of rail travel, but its greatest delights are the pages and pages of artwork that re-create the romance that still exists today for railroad fans everywhereArrive Magazine
