MAURICE LOGAN SOUTHERN PACIFIC. Group of 5 posters. Circa 1920s. Each approximately 23x16 inches. Condition varies, generally B+. Paper. A visual travelogue of Southern Pacific's routes, encompassing New Orleans, Lake Tahoe Region, Yosemite, the Shasta Route and Old Missions. In 1917, Logan and five other California painters joined together to form the "Society of Six," a group of artists whose work was categorized first and foremost by bold colors. "Considered outsiders in their time, their work is now recognized as part of the vital and enduring lineage of American art." As early as 1923 Maurice Logan was designing posters for the Southern Pacific Railway, but in the late 1920s the Railway began to reproduce his popular paintings.
