This remarkably rare and well-preserved affiche by Koen Van Os is believed to be the last one of its kind, making it a true collectible. Commissioned in the 1950s for Dutch travel agencies, the Dutch Railways, and the Stoomvaartmaatschappij Zeeland (Hoek van Holland), the poster promotes travel to London. Van Os ingeniously features the iconic palace guard donning a black bearskin hat, a vibrant symbol of the British capital.

Printed by The IJssel in Deventer, the poster’s colors remain stunningly fresh despite minor edge wear, rolling creases, and light fold marks at the top center (Condition B+). Signed “Koen Van Os V.R.I.” at the top left, it stands as a captivating slice of mid-century travel advertising and a must-have piece for collectors of vintage posters.
