Nantucket New Haven Railroad
Original vintage travel advertising poster for Nantucket published by The New Haven Railroad featuring a great illustration of the historic Courthouse (built 1772) in front of a tree with people by the doorway and a horse drawn carriage on the cobblestone road on the side, the old town image blending into the blue sea with colourful sailing boats on the water leading into the distance, the stylised title text below in white lettering. Nantucket is an island near Cape Cod in Massachusetts popular as a summer destination with its sandy beaches and National Historic Landmarks.

FAQs
More information about our posters and service.
Are your posters originals?
All our antique and vintage posters, books, maps and prints listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity.
What is a lithograph?
Practically all of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves carving each colour of the image onto a piece of stone. The poster sheet is then imprinted consecutively with a stone slab for each colour, creating a stunning and rich image.
With the exception of silk printing, we believe that other printing techniques do not deliver the same impact of colour as lithography.
Where do you deliver to?
We ship posters worldwide rolled in shock-resistant and hard wearing tubes. Unless specified otherwise, delivery is free within the UK and standard international delivery is £25 for orders placed via our website.
