EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant era of 1950s Whitley Bay, Northumberland. A vintage British Railways poster, skillfully designed by artist Davies, serves as a nostalgic reminder of the train services that once connected this charming coastal town with the rest of Tyne and Wear. The scene depicted is set against the backdrop of a moonlit night, where Whitley Bay's enchanting seafront comes alive with its timeless allure. The sparkling waves crash gently upon the shore, creating an atmosphere filled with tranquility and serenity. In this idyllic setting, we catch a glimpse of people enjoying their personal lives amidst couples strolling hand in hand along the promenade. One particular figure steals our attention – a stylishly dressed woman accompanied by her elegant poodle dog. Their presence adds an air of sophistication to this already picturesque scene. As they walk leisurely under the glow of streetlights, it becomes evident that Whitley Bay was not just any seaside destination; it was a place where evening wear met coastal charm. Preserved within this remarkable print from National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection lies more than just historical significance; it encapsulates an entire era brimming with romance and nostalgia. It reminds us how railway posters were once powerful tools for promoting travel destinations like Whitley Bay and enticing adventure-seeking souls to explore new horizons via British Railways' reliable services.
