The Tom Eckersley (1914-1997) Archive is housed at the University of the Arts London Archives and Special Collections Centre. The collection contains posters produced by Eckersley that reflect the range of his work from propaganda posters to his post-war posters. Eckersley used bold simple designs, often resembling collage. The collection shows the development of his style and poster art more generally. Eckersley was also a teacher of poster arts and established the first graphic design course in Britain at the London College of Printing (now College of Communication, part of University of the Arts London). The collection was formed by Eckersley, and as well as printed posters, it includes other work such as magazine covers, and original artwork that shows his work processes
