Original vintage poster for the Japanese owned South Manchuria Railway which operated in China and Korea. Most likely showing the "Asia Express", a high speed train from Dalian to the Manchukuo capital of Hsinking (Changchun). Reaching a top speed of 134 km/h (83 mph), the "Asia Express" was the fastest scheduled train in Asia at the time. A very rare poster, but has missing pieces.
