Retro Posters Part 2

Inspiration Retro Travel Posters!

I am running with the theme of the 1920's Travel Posters. I have always loved the 1920's, the fashion, the style, architecture and the flamboyancy.

The issue I have is that I did a few posters - that looked good but when I did a few more they just started to look repetitive and they did not really stand out.

I liked some of them in Black & White - but I think they are just looking to boring - especially compared with the wonderful works of art that were used for the original travel posters.

  

  


The Originals:

LONDON. Art print Travel/Railway Poster of London Southbank

Paris: original vintage 1930s art deco travel poster
 by Robert Falcucci
, 1930s
  
Edinburgh Mons Meg. LNER Vintage Travel Poster art print by Frank Newbould c1935

As you can see I need to do some work.... I think the font on the posters to start with needs to be different and then I might do some colour and some black and white. But sticking to the same theme.

This has been a challenge but at least it is a good challenge.

I also do love vintage art work and the idea of being able to make my photos into vintage style travel posters is quite exiting.

Follow-up: I think I am getting fat on Chia Latti - so making my own Chia tea and having with dash of milk there days. I did eat a bar of Galaxy chocolate from the UK the other day... at the time it tasted good but after - sore tummy set in. I also went to get a dress taken in and tried on the shoes I am wearing with it.... Lets just say I am not sure how I am going to walk in them - I have to practice while I am doing house work.
