This original vintage poster from the 1960s captures the allure of Colorado's snowy landscapes, inviting travelers to explore the state's ski resorts via Greyhound bus. The artwork showcases skiers gracefully descending pristine slopes, with snow-covered pine trees and a cozy lodge nestled at the base of the mountains, encapsulating the excitement of winter sports and the serenity of alpine scenery.(Heritage Auctions Movie Posters)
The "Go Greyhound" campaign, launched in 1956, aimed to promote bus travel as a convenient and comfortable alternative to driving, especially appealing to middle-class Americans seeking leisure and adventure. This poster exemplifies that initiative, portraying bus travel as an accessible gateway to the exhilarating experiences awaiting in Colorado's ski country.(Wikipedia)
While the artist remains anonymous, the poster's design reflects the mid-century modern aesthetic prevalent in travel advertising of the era, characterized by clean lines, vibrant colors, and stylized representations of landscapes. Such posters were instrumental in shaping the visual culture of American travel during the post-war boom, enticing citizens to explore the nation's diverse destinations.

  • If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

  • The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
