J + S


The simplicity and imagery of this 1930s poster is very appealing. The close proximity and the similarities in how each transportational device is visually manipulated makes for a good example of how one might use juxtaposition. The correlation of the car, train, plain and globe all going the same direction clearly and instantly communicates to any viewer the idea of motion and efficiency. The major similarity of each object in the image is the solid colors.
The text on the bottom nicely completes the image, with it's own juxtaposing aspects.
