The London Transport Museum is currently showing an exhibition of posters as part of its celebration of 150 years of the Underground. It’s a fascinating show in terms of the way the forms of address used have changed (or should that be ebbed and flowed?) over the decades. I was maybe most impressed by the smallest works - little litho prints maybe 8 x 10” created for the interiors of Tube carriages as seen in the third photo above (from this book) - blocky, concise, fun.
