London Underground Poster LT Enjoy Your Museums Anthony Gilbert. Original vintage travel advertising poster by London Transport - Enjoy your London No.1 The Museums - Entertainment comes before study in the London museums. Text part of the two sheet poster. The idea that museums are only for the student is out of date. Ask the children if they think Stephenson's Rocket in the Science Museum is dull. See if they ever tire of making the models work. And are you really unmoved by Scott's final pencilled words kept now and for all time in the manuscript room of the British Museum? The designers who go to the fashion display in the Victoria and Albert, notebook in hand, go for the most practical reason. And, let's be quite frank, if you go for the first time because the museums are warm and free and something to do on a rainy afternoon, they will be just as glad to see you as if you had come to study a Saxon ship-burial or to verify a reference in Domesday Book. - featuring the addresses, opening times, and nearest stations for the British Museum, Geffrye Museum, Geological Museum, Horniman Museum, Imperial Institute, Imperial War Museum, National Maritime Museum, Natural History Museum, Public Record Office Museum, Royal United Service Museum, Science Museum, Sir John Soane�s Museum, Tower of London Armouries, Victoria & Albert Museum, Wallace Collection. Good condition, creasing, tears, small paper loss on bottom left corner, minor staining. Country of issue: UK, designer: Anthony Gilbert, size (cm): 102x63, year of printing: 1949.
