A set of four London Underground posters from 1933 designed by Clifford Ellis and Rosemary Ellis. They created several wildlife-themed posters encouraging Londoners to travel out to parks, heaths, woods, and rivers using the Underground. #art #illustration

Underground - yep
General - is this what we call Overground now, IE not the tube but TfL
Trolleybus - not really now a few trams
Green Line?? I always thought of the District as that but not sure

Beautiful posters

I definitely remember the 'Green Line' bus being a thing when I was 18-ish in West London, in maybe 1977? One used to run down the Great West Road through Osterley.

Bytebro - yes you're right! As soon as you said that it clicked.

I hadn't thought of buses
