Description
Follow the Underground and Live Out of Town Vintage Poster
This vintage London Underground poster from 1910 encouraged Londoners to move to the new London suburbs. This included places like Highgate, Golders Green, Putney and Wimbledon.
The four dates referenced on the poster (March 25, June 24, September 29 and December 25) were the "quarter days". These were the dates when the next quarterly rent was due.
In 1910 London, most middle class families lived in rented accommodation. The poster was encouraging people to move before the next quarterly rent was due.
This image was created by photographing the original poster with a professional high-definition Leica camera. It is not a copy from the internet. With the exceptional photography and exacting standards of color, this guarantees that you get the finest quality possible.
The watermark in the lower right hand corner of the picture does not appear on the final print.
Prints are produced on acid-free paper using archival inks to guarantee they last a lifetime without fading or loss of contrast, color or tone.
If you chose to order a framed print, the framing is done to museum quality with archival matting. The frame is wired and comes with a wall hook. It is ready to hang on the wall.
