An immigrant in a light brown hat and lavender shirt is admiring a picturesque view of a red train riding past verdant fields and prosperous farms; against a yellow background. Intended to encourage immigration to Canada by showing off the bounty of the land (and the intriguing slogan "The Right Land for the Right Man"), this poster was printed in England, with German text for the Swiss market; multi-colored lettering.
