This website has some great vintage style posters and prints, a lot of them rail focused. NFI, etc.

Very cool, though I think his colors are a bit to bright for vintage-looking posters.

I'd disagree - we are used to the idea that vintage colors were more subtle because we commonly see them faded or on old film. The colors were just as bright as we use today, but a bit more ruddy, and accented with softer tones.

(1899, Talouse-Latrec [sp] became famous for his brightly colored posters advertising entertainers at The Red Windmill - or, more commonly known, the Moulin Rouge.)

I thought this would be a neat site for others to see.

And where's Dillinger. It is the Biograph after all...
