Inspiration: Vintage Graphic Design

At the markets on the weekend I picked up a little collection of food and drink related graphics from the '50s and '60s. The graphic simplicity of the illustrations and the colour palettes used in that era never cease to inspire me. Below are some photos taken in the It's A Small World ride at Disneyland - the murals have the same design sensibility.
If you're into vintage graphic design there's a great blog (one of my many daily reads) called grain edit - check it out.
These posters are via grain edit and are a part of Tony Hillman's collection of British Airways publicity material.
