Van't Hoff was a Dutch designer who worked alongside A.M. Cassandre for the Holland America Line. The posters Van't Hoff designed, especially those for transportation companies, reflect the influence of Cassandre's style. For the Dutch Air Mail service, he provides a classic image of a stylized airplane with impeccable typography. This image also exists with an orange background.
