About The Poster: A fabulous Art Deco poster measuring 24.5 x 39 inches, advertising PERROS GUIREC (and its granite coast) for the French Railways, designed by Serre. The French Railway System (SNCF) was nationalized in the 1930s, and in an effort to promote tourism, and deflect the impact of automobile traffic, the company hired some of the best poster artists of the time to create works advertising almost every corner of the country. Commarmond designed a number of these posters and each is spectacular and charming. Using the best of Art Deco design, colours of the period and typography which is quite typical of the age, the artist manages to convey the charms of each of the destinations he has been hired to advertise. SNCF posters are highly collectible and sought after around the globe. This poster is one of roughly 30 which we have just received from a private collection. Most of the posters are unlined, in very good condition (some slight ruffling around the edges but no repairs, restorations or major flaws) and in A- condition. If you would like additional photos we would be happy to send them. We ship around the world. Please note that all of our posters are vintage, non-reproduction works of art.
