EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the golden era of British seaside holidays in the 1950s. The poster, produced by British Railways (BR), entices travelers to explore the picturesque coastal towns of Mablethorpe and Sutton-on-Sea in Lincolnshire. The artwork, skillfully created by Jack Merriott, transports us to a sunny beach scene filled with nostalgia and charm. In the foreground, a young woman stands on a small bank of sand, her arm raised as if beckoning visitors to join her in this idyllic setting. Behind her stretches an expansive beach that seems to go on forever. The vibrant colors and attention to detail capture the essence of summer holidays at these beloved seaside resorts. The sparkling sea glistens under the bright blue sky while families frolic along the shore, building sandcastles and enjoying refreshing dips in the water. Mablethorpe and Sutton-on-Sea offer everything one could desire for a perfect getaway – sandy beaches where children can play freely, charming promenades lined with quaint shops and cafes serving delicious treats, and breathtaking views of the coast that soothe both body and soul. As we gaze upon this evocative image from yesteryears, we are reminded of simpler times when rail travel was not just about reaching your destination but also about embarking on unforgettable journeys filled with anticipation and joy.
