This authentic vintage poster, skillfully designed by the renowned Fred Taylor, serves as a captivating promotion for Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland, as a travel destination on The London & North Eastern Railway of England and Scotland.
Fred Taylor, a prominent British poster artist spanning from 1908 to the 1940s, was celebrated for his diverse subjects, with a notable emphasis on buildings and architecture. His proficiency extended to decorative painting, earning him regular exhibitions at the Royal Academy.
Despite showing signs of age-related wear, including small holes from thumbtack pins, crumbles, dirt, a small water stain, and a missing piece at the lower left corner, the poster remains in good condition. Professionally mounted on linen, it presents a wonderful opportunity to showcase Taylor's artistry and Edinburgh's allure, making it an appealing addition to any framed display.
