Holyoke Massachusetts c. 1939: Valley Litho Inc. Lithographed poster 19 x 25 inches; Take to the A.Y.H. Trail. Northfield 1939: American Youth Hostels . Lithographed poster 17 x 22 inches; Hostellers Know.Northfield 1939: American Youth Hostels Inc. Lithographed poster 17 x 22 inches. All are signed “Isabel†in images. Excellent condition overall with some toning small chips and various wear to margins but overall quite well preserved. Near Fine. Isabel and Monroe Smith a married couple from Northfield Massachusetts started the American Youth Hostel movement in 1933 after gaining inspiration from Richard Schirrman’s German Hosteling Organization. The movement grew quickly with thirty hostels operating throughout New England within the first year. The first hostel was the Northfield Chateau a large mansion on Birnham Road that was eventually demolished in 1963. The network of chaperoned hostels created the opportunity for safe bicycle-based travel as shown in the posters offered here. <br /> <br /> Offered here are three early posters from the movement designed by Isabel Smith each with her signature in the image. All posters are variations on the cycling theme. One of them states that “When the grand day’s bicycling is done… no fare can compare with the Royal ‘Hostellers’ Own.†Smith’s design aesthetic is quite accomplished and we are surprised to find no examples of these in institutional collections. Overall a visually compelling group uncommon. Litho Inc. / American Youth Hostels unknown
