About this artwork
This poster comes from the artist famed for creating the notorious First World War recruitment poster Your Country Needs You (1914), featuring Lord Kitchener. Alfred Leete, the artist in question, also designed ads for brands like Guinness and Bovril, along with commissioning posters for the London Underground. Leete, famous for his humorous illustrations, uses a comedic angle here, depicting the public being 'enticed' by the fast services of the Underground, much to the envy of bus and taxi riders. The London Underground symbol, also known as the roundel, is portrayed as a vortex, drawing people towards it. It was published by the Underground Electric Railways Company of London in 1927. This print is an authentic reproduction from the historic poster archive housed in the London Transport Museum. Every purchase contributes to the museum's operations.
