The Gauge O Guild
In the 1950s and 1960s some heavy users of rail freight services would stick posters on the sides or doors of vans or containers carrying their products. These were an everyday sight on British Railways in the steam and early diesel periods, and almost every main line and pick-up goods train of the period showed at least one example. They gave a splash of colour and authenticity on otherwise drab bauxite vans and provided a touch of colour in a drab, industrial environment. Their characteristic period design will add authenticity and variety to your models. Hollar Models posters represent the originals as accurately as the imperfect photographic record allows. Many of them are based on dimensioned sketches done at the time, but others have been produced by eye using photographs. The whole 7mm range is available now to be downloaded free of charge from the Gauge O Guild’s website, for members and non-members.
The image below shows all the posters which are available on the various download sheets.
