"Not compromised by Nazism (as was officially established later) was young designer Willi Kunze (1914-?). He created contemporary designs for the Reichsbahn in 1937. They were intended to radiate speed and reliability, and in the case of his Winterreise also enjoyment and comfort. He combined photo montages with watercolor, airbrush and collage elements, which was an international trend at the time. According to the multilingual magazine Gebrauchsgrafik, Kunze belonged to 'the foremost rank of those young, active, creative, commercial artists'. But later he was largely forgotten.
What French designer Cassandre did ten years earlier with his famous litho posters, Willi Kunze achieved with photo montages. He used the diagonal lines of tracks and telegraph poles along the line as symbols of speed. The theme of reliability in winter was added to this by overlaying a photo of snow-laden telegraph wires with blue and red colors and a wood motif collage element. Unlike von Axster-Heudtlaß, Kunze used straight, modernist lettering.
