These authentic Tube (London Underground) posters are from the 1980s, and were used to advertise the new Travelcard in the ticket offices and on the walls of the London Underground. You can see where they have been removed from the wall, and in some places where they have been glued on with a brush. Fair condition, but dripping with authenticity. Note the tear at the top.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 40.2 in x 25.2 in (102 cm x 64 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Get to know the Off Peak Travelcard\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Travelcard was introduced as the third in a series of major fare revisions that had started in 1981. The introduction of the Travelcard was intended to increase patronage on London Underground and London Buses, particularly during less busy times and to speed up the boarding of bus services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore the introduction of the Travelcard, tickets for the London Underground were purchased on a 'point-to-point' basis between two stations, either as a single, return or season ticket; and were priced according to distance travelled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen framed these colourful and detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the FAQ for more information on shipping, tracking and insurance options.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lampposted","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57206139814275,"sku":"LE7TN","price":100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8538\/7139\/files\/il_fullxfull.3226734198_bg9f.jpg?v=1768959836","url":"https:\/\/lampposted.com\/products\/vintage-tube-london-underground-poster-66871","provider":"Lampposted","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
