On the Cover

Herbert Leupin, one of the great Swiss poster artists, often included visual gags in his work. This 1946 poster promotes the Grindelwald resort without showing any skiing. A jolly concierge, tiny baggage sled in tow, tips his hat in welcome under the train station sign. But those aren't train tracks.
