AFTER a one-year hiatus, when the London Transport Museum occupied its gallery with the momentous year-long Poster Girls exhibition, the prestigious Poster Prize for Illustration is back.

Poster Girls celebrated a century of women winning voting rights with a display of posters designed for the Underground by women and it proved to be one of the most successful ever held by the museum.
