notting hill tube station posters
My attention was brought to these amazing posters last week - sealed away in Notting Hill tube station in London, they have not been seen since the 1950s. It's a great time capsule, preserving the mid-century designs in great condition.
There are more photos here, posted by mikeyashworth.
paint tube
Brian Kerr has a great post on his blog about the London Underground map and imagery associated with it. I'm particularly fond of David Booth's 1986 poster for the Tate, which shows the map drawn with paint squeezed from tubes.

I like this design by Keith Davis Young, also available as an awesome-looking screenprint.
stasys eidrigevicius
I couldn't believe my eyes when I discovered that Stasys Eidrigevicius had launched his own website. Happy day!
Born in Lithuania and based in Poland, his poster art is legendary, combining an incredible skill and wit. It is so exciting for me to see his images of his work in other areas, including performance, sculpture and masks. Visit his site today and be inspired.
film festival poster
This Saul Bass poster for a film festival in 1974? Oh, it's just made of awesome, that's all.

summer
I'm well aware that summer was a while ago now but this poster for The Partners' summer party is super smart. It is also quite the accurate reflection of the British weather for most of the year, regardless of season.

Oooh...gorgeous retro-ness courtesy of Simon Page, with a set of posters created for the International Year of Astronomy 2009. Via ISO50.
dkng studios
DKNG Studios are Dan Kuhlken and Nathan Goldman. I was particularly impressed by their perfect portfolio of posters (drawn in by an image on FFFFOUND!, as per usual).
michael ciancio
I certainly agree with this - the conclusion Michael Ciancio came to after a one-year stay in Europe.
