Travel Poster Come And Explore Britain History In Stone Country Town. Original vintage travel poster - Come and Explore... Britain. If history is unwritten in stones, some chapters must be told in gems; and of these, the country towns of Britain can surely claim a share. Through these quiet towns the centuries have passed, leaving here a memory of an old-time fashion and there an example of an earlier style, legacies that form an enchanting record of the passage of the years. - featuring a great illustration by an English painter and etcher Stanley Roy Badmin (1906-1989) depicting a day in the life of a quaint country town with a herdsman and his cows, children playing in the streets, folk buying groceries, set among the narrow streets and cobbled roofs with church towering above. Fair condition, tears, creasing, folds, staining, pinholes, paper skimming, tape on edge, pencil on top edge, signed by SR Badmin on bottom right of image. Country of issue: UK, designer: S.R. Badmin, size (cm): 76x51, year of printing: 1953.
