Much of our correspondence is done by email and text message these days…
…but it’s great when you get a real letter or card.
Especially if they look like these!!
These are from our small collection of vintage postcards.
They’re taken from London Transport posters dating from the 1950s & 60s.
Artists including John Burningham, Victor Galbraith, Gaynor Chapman, Robert Tavener, Harry Stevens and Abram Games are featured here.
They’d certainly be a welcome addition to a pile of bills coming through the letterbox!
my letter box is so empty …
they look wonderful
Ha ha – I collect vintage postcards too! In fact I've just started setting up a blog about it. We really do have uncannily similar taste! Who is the London Transport Sightseeing bus tours postcard by? I love it.
It's by someone called Karo
We couldn't really find out much about him, but I'm sure these folks could help: http://vintageposterblog.com/
Thanks! I'll see if I can dig anything up myself about the artist. The colours are just amazing! Thanks for sharing.
