An exceptional poster by an exceptional designer. Fred Taylor is considered one of the foremost poster designers of the “Golden Age” of railway posters between the wars. He was particularly recognised for his skill in representing architectural detail, something that is abundantly clear in this remarkable LNER poster showing St John’s college, Cambridge. From the text on the poster one can see it was printed & distributed in Italy. That it has survived is truly remarkable, it is a very rare poster.

The poster is complete and free from loss or tears. It has been cleaned and laid on Japan paper. It looks superb & is ready to frame.
