The Société nationale des chemins de fer français (SNCF, “French National Railway Company”) is France’s national state-owned railway company and was founded in 1938. This was the first SNCF poster produced for the, then, new company, created by Marcelle Hirtz and Paul Martial featuring one of the SNCF steam locomotives and offering “Rail at your service”.
This is a reproduction of the very scarce first ever poster issued by the then new national railway company and orinal copies of this poster sell for in excess of £3400.
Our posters are carefully and professionally created from vintage originals. Whilst great care is taken in the production of these posters, we also try to maintain a vintage feel, so there may be small imperfections, fold marks, scuffs, tears or marks that were part of the original poster master. If these do appear they should be visible on the larger views of the item on this listing. The originals of many of the posters we offer can cost many thousands of pounds, so whilst these posters look great, especially framed and mounted on a wall, they are intended as a fun, affordable reproductions and not intended fine art prints.
The 50x70cm version has been specially produced to be used in conjunction with Ikea’s 50x70cm Ribba picture frame which currently retails for around £12. So you can bag a bargain of print and frame for a great price.
