Fascinating. I’m a major Tube fan, could happily spend weeks there, have never seen these before.

LMFAO I’m so glad my friend told me about this *subscribes!!*
Highly evocative. The Science Museum poster could be mistaken for a more recent design but all the rest have that ’50s graphic quirky style. A lovely find.
“Around the World in 80 Days” – “Now in it’s 2nd year!” I remember when movies would be at the same theater for a months and months. “Held over!”
These are absolutely fantastic!
It’s interesting to see that the grocer’s apostrophe was making it into print even then – Ford Prefect’s – I bet that poster annoyed several pedants striding past.
