Description: The SNCF (Société Nationale des Chemins de fer français; "French National Railway Corporation"), is France's national state-owned railway company. Begun in 1938, it used posters from its inception to advertise the multitude of destinations which were served by its rail-lines. This poster, created shortly after the company itself was created is a wonderful testament to Art Deco design; strong colors and visuals which pop, clean graphic design and great typography!
