EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1930s, a time when rail travel was at its peak and coastal resort towns were all the rage. The poster, produced by the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER), beautifully showcases Scarborough, a picturesque town nestled on the North Yorkshire coast. The artwork by Edmund Oakdale transports us to a sunny summer day where fashionably dressed individuals enjoy their leisurely time along Scarborough's sandy shores. The poster captures an idyllic scene of people donning stylish summer clothing, exuding elegance and sophistication as they bask in the sun. In the background, we are treated to a delightful sight - swimmers gracefully diving into the bay from a raised diving deck. This image perfectly encapsulates the joyous atmosphere of this seaside paradise. The LNER's promotional efforts through this stunning artwork aimed to entice travelers with dreams of escaping bustling city life for a tranquil retreat by the sea. It invites viewers to imagine themselves indulging in leisurely strolls along Scarborough's promenade or taking refreshing dips in its inviting waters. Preserved by National Railway Museum, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact that allows us to appreciate not only Oakdale's talent but also provides insight into how rail travel played such an integral role in promoting tourism during that era.
