In Suhonen’s beautiful poster for the Olympic games in 1940 (they were cancelled due to the war) the city surroundings have been replaced by the archipelago, Söderarm Lighthouse under the air tunnel between the Åland islands and Stockholm to be precise.

And now a nostalgic tear runs down a Finnish cheek. We’re talking of that link to the town, that symbol of national unity, those bright yellow, rather slow, but always reliable and delightfully sociable…post buses.
