Munich and Central Europe — LNER Poster, Ludwig Hohlwein, 1929
Ludwig Hohlwein · LNER travel poster, 1929
What it is
Ludwig Hohlwein’s poster for the London and North Eastern Railway, advertising boat-train connections to Munich and Central Europe.
Why it matters
The mainline "Big Four" companies commissioned internationally, not just domestically — this piece sells a continental destination through a British rail ticket.
What to notice
Hohlwein’s flat, poster-optimized figure style, distinct from the softer British house hands elsewhere on this shelf.
The country, sold one connecting service at a time.
