It's time again to salivate over Swann Galleries' annual Modernist poster auction. As always, it's packed with treasures from the heyday of avant garde graphic design. Though the catalog is wide-ranging — from wartime PSAs to sporting events to film debuts — pictured above is sampling of travel-related posters we culled from the 200+ posters being offered. You have until 1:30pm to wipe that drool and start your bidding.Click on the images for a jumbo view. Bib not included.
Very cool posters. Made me think alternately of some of Ayn Rand's book covers and some of Aaron Douglas' paintings from the Harlem Renaissance.
