The 27 poster images here range from a sunset over Inverness to the sparkling cliffs of Cornwall, from the ancient hills and castles of Wales to the stately dome of St. Paul's in London, with many a ruined abbey and railway viaduct between. In the 1920s, the major railways in Great Britain began employing a number of artists to produce a series of uncommonly beautiful posters promoting rail travel. Chief among these artists was Norman Wilkinson, and this postcard book offers vivid reproductions of some of his finest lithographed posters, from the collection of Britain's National Railway Museum. The cards measure 6 1/2 x 4 3/4 inches, and require first-class (letter) postage.
