Today, almost 90 years later, Lee’s idea of communicating directly with passengers through pamphlets, brochures, and posters — and many of the same themes: public safety, system improvements, travel advisories, subway etiquette, and public service announcements — can be found in the MTA New York City Transit’s Subtalk and Bustalk posters series.
