Dieselpunks

Dieselpunk + Steampunk Culture

Some Diesel Era spirit from the famous Tube. I said 'Tube", not 'YouTube'.

Zero (Hans Schleger) Thanks to the Underground, 1935

London Transport Museum preserves several dozen treasures of graphic design. Vintage posters continue to inspire artists all over the world. Every British poster art exposition is considered a major cultural event, attracting maximum attention. Here on Dieselpunks.org they are featured in the Underground Art and other articles (see Abram GamesEdward McKnight Kauffer and British Wartime Posters). But there's never enough of them. Enjoy some more!
