TRAVEL POSTERS: 1930s Vintage French Ocean liner Poster, Paris Marseille Afrique du Nord, Cie Gle Compagnie Generale Transatlantique & PLM.
A spectacular, and rare poster for the Companie Générale Transatlantique and its joint venture with the PLM railroad. Created between 1858 and 1862 from the amalgamation of the earlier Paris-Lyon and Lyon-Méditerranée companies, and subsequently incorporating a number of smaller railways, the PLM operated chiefly in the south-east of France, with a main line which connected Paris to the Cote d'Azur by way of Dijon, Lyon and Marseille. As such, it was perfectly positioned to offer a train/ocean liner experience to its travelling passengers. 24¼ins. x 39ins.
