Modiano

If you have a spare half hour, I can heartily recommend you spend it over at David Levine’s collection of (mostly) travel related design from the 1920s and 1930s (www.travelbrochuregraphics.com). I would have saved the picture above for an Elegantly Dressed Wednesday, but I was too keen to share it now.

What a fabulous image. Brightened a dull and stressful day, which has turned to night, in the office.

Quink,

The Modiano is a beauty. What a dynamic period.

I wonder, are you familiar with Polish posters of the same period? The theatre & film ones are wonderfully eccentric. Later posters of Fellini & Don Giovanni are equally curious.

(The non-smoking comment on my blog made me chuckle. There a few things I can do without a cigarette, so I completely understand. I’m beginning to admire those who can quit.)
