EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Northumberland Coble, a traditional fishing boat that was widely employed along the East Coast of England from Hartlepool to Holy Island. The image is part of the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) poster series titled "East Coast Craft" which aimed to promote local industries and transportation options during the years 1923-1947. In this particular shot, we see a small Coble gracefully navigating through choppy waters, with its sturdy frame contrasting against a much larger ship in the background. The Coble's design is both striking and unique, making it instantly recognizable as an integral part of coastal life in Northumberland. The caption accompanying this evocative photograph highlights not only the challenges faced by those who operated these boats but also their deep admiration for them. Described as difficult to handle yet wonderful, it speaks volumes about the resilience and skill required to navigate these treacherous waters. This image captures a snapshot of history when cobles were essential for trade, industry, and fishing activities along this rugged coastline. It serves as a reminder of our maritime heritage and pays tribute to the brave fishermen who relied on these vessels for their livelihoods. Displayed proudly at National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print transports us back in time while celebrating an important aspect of regional culture – one that continues to be cherished today.
