French National Railroads (Societe Nationale Des Chemins De Fer Francais or S.N.C.F.), the French travel poster ("For traveling in France the railway is the right way"; "Visit France by train"; "Discover France by train") made by the S.N.C.F to encourage travel by the French National Railroad. Each poster features a wonderful image or art of one of the many locations that the railroad visits. The SNCF was founded in 1938 with the nationalization of France's main railway companies.
Artist: Jean Cheval & Alex Batany
Important Added Info: Note that this poster is a bit of a mystery. We have seen images of posters like this that date to the 1940s and 1950s and several of them have images at top and bottom. This poster has evidence of trimming along at least the upper edge and possibly at bottom but we cannot be 100% certain exactly how big this poster was originally. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here and please do not bid if you are uncomfortable with this uncertainty.

Condition: poor to fair. The poster has darkened substantially and there are pinholes around the edges that show some of the original paper color. As noted above it is likely heavily trimmed at top and bottom. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above, or you are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
