The London Underground Poster Diary 2012 focuses on posters from the 1930s which enticed prospective travellers by focusing on the destination therefore subjects include London's places of interest, through suburbia and beyond to the rolling countryside.

London Underground is renowned for its poster archive and the Tube has become 'London's longest art gallery'. Historically these eye-catching posters enticed prospective travellers indirectly by focusing on the destination rather than the mode of travel and as the Underground expanded so did its potential destinations - from the inner city, through suburbia and beyond to the rolling countryside. The London Underground Poster Diary 2012 focuses on posters from the 1930s - these are bolder, brighter and more adventurous than those of the 1920s and their imagery varies from traditional naturalistic scenes to more radical geometric and even abstract interpretations of a subject. As well as Tube facts and trivia, the London Underground Poster Diary 2012 features posters by designers including Dora M. Batty, Charles Pears, Herry Perry, Zero and Man Ray.
