Underground Art London: Transport Posters 1908 to the Present

by Oliver Green

Book Overview

Under the enlightened rule of publicity officer Frank Pick, many of the major and unsung minor artists from Britain, Europe and the US produced their finest work as commissions for the London Underground. London Transport did not merely promote travel by tube, it encouraged its patrons to go to plays and concerts, visit the Zoo, go to the country for the day or move to Metroland.
