Posters from 1953-1959

Map of Ireland Showing Places of Note and Interest. British Railways in co-operation with Bord Fáilte Éireann

David William Burley. 1955. This is a large ‘quad royal’ poster.

This is the ultimate in use of tourism stereotype – apart from Portarlington turf burning station! It conveys so much that the detail is hard to appreciate however. Similar pictorial poster maps also were issued by British Railways for some British regions.
