The world's first underground railway, the London Underground opened its first section in 1863. Today it's the third-busiest metro system in Europe. In 1908 Frank Pick, an early director charged with publicity for the expanding transit system, began hiring Britain's best artists and designers to produce posters for the newly named "Underground." The posters reproduced in this address book are from London Transport Museum, one of the world's finest poster archives. 40 full-color reproductions; up to 480 entries; 20 tabbed alphabetial dividers.
