WILLY TRAPP (1905-1984) THE ST. GOTTHARD LINE. 1932. 40x25 1/2 inches, 101 1/2x64 1/2 cm. Wolfsberg, Zurich. Condition B+: restoration in margins; creases and abrasions in image. One of two very similar posters Trapp designed in 1932, one promoting "Switzerland Best Value in Holiday Travel," and this image celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Gotthard Tunnel. Each has a large silhouette of a train coming at the viewer, but this image has a different vista in the lower left corner as well as a slightly different train, a garland on the fender and international flags trailing off down the side of the train itself. English version. Le Train p. 70 (var).
