C.K.L. SAMARASINHA (1919-2003) CEYLON. Circa 1935. 40x25 inches, 101 1/2x63 1/2 cm. Waterlow & Sons Ltd., London. Condition B+ / A-: minor restoration along unobtrusive vertical and horizontal folds. One of two posters this artist is known to have designed promoting travel to the island off India's Southern coast. Ceylon, currently known as Sri Lanka, was a British colony until it achieved its independence in 1948. Given that this poster was printed in London suggests that it was designed while the colony was still under British rule. This is the larger format.
