EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and historic poster designed by Eric C Owen in 1937. This vibrant and dynamic advertisement, available through Mary Evans Picture Library by Onslows Auctioneers, showcases the excitement and innovation of the 1930s communication revolution. The poster's bold design features a large, stylized red, black, and white telephone receiver, with the transatlantic telephone line depicted as a winding, intricate map connecting Europe and America. The receiver's curved shape mirrors the contours of the map, emphasizing the connection between the two continents. The lettering is clear and striking, with the words "Europe Welcomes You" written in bold, white letters at the top, and "Use the Transatlantic Telephone" in smaller, red letters below. The poster's design conveys a sense of wonder and anticipation, as if to say that with the transatlantic telephone, the world has become smaller and more connected. The use of contrasting colors and bold, modern typography creates a sense of energy and excitement, making this poster a standout piece of 1930s advertising. Eric C Owen's "Use the Transatlantic Telephone: Europe Welcomes You" is a testament to the power of communication technology to bring people closer together, and a reminder of the fascination and excitement that surrounded the development of new technologies in the 1930s. This poster is not only a beautiful and intriguing piece of graphic design, but also a glimpse into the past, offering a window into a time when long-distance communication was a marvel of modern technology.
