EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage poster, titled "Remove or Cancel all Old Labels," was designed by the renowned British graphic artist Frank Newbould for the British Railways' staff information campaign around 1950. The poster's primary objective was to emphasize the importance of removing and canceling old labels from packages in railway operations. Newbould's artwork is a visual feast, showcasing a meticulously arranged collage of labels, each with a distinct design and color palette, that covers the surface of a wooden crate. The labels appear to be from various countries, including France, Germany, and the United States, reflecting the international nature of railway trade during that era. The central message of the poster is conveyed through a large red "X" that intersects the crate, symbolizing the need to cancel or remove outdated labels. The bold, clear typography of the text adds to the poster's clarity and impact. The use of a monochromatic color scheme, with the exception of the red "X," creates a striking contrast and draws the viewer's attention to the message. The "Remove or Cancel all Old Labels" poster is a testament to Frank Newbould's exceptional design skills and the British Railways' commitment to maintaining efficient and effective railway operations. This poster is an essential addition to any collection of mid-century graphic design or railway history, and its timeless appeal continues to resonate with audiences today. The Twentieth Century Posters Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online is proud to offer this iconic piece of design history for appreciation and study. This poster is not intended for commercial use without proper licensing.
