20s/30s Advertising
« on: March 04, 2010, 09:45:11 AM »
BBC: In Pictures: Railway's Golden Age - a short collection of mostly 20s & 30s advertising for UK railways.

Some nice period colour!

The images are imbedded in a Flash gallery so they can't easily be saved for repurposing, but there's always Print Screen...
