Design in Airline Travel Posters 1920-1970: A Semiology and Sociocultural History - Paperback
by David Scott (Author)
Design in Airline Travel Posters 1920-1970 offers an original insight into the structure of travel advertisements and the way recurrent motifs adapt to changing times and functions. It is both a semiology and a sociocultural history that explores the way advertising posters combine information and fantasy to create seductive image/texts. The book is lavishly illustrated in colour, the images constituting an essential part of the overall argument.
David Scott is internationally known both for his writing on travel and on the semiotics of graphic design, with books on travel texts, the postage stamp and the poster. He has also written books on the aesthetics and cultures of boxing and is the author of three works of fiction.
