Railway Posters is the story of train travel told through the posters of American and European railway companies.

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.
