EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the golden era of British seaside holidays. Produced by British Railways (BR) between 1948 and 1965, this poster aimed to entice travelers to visit the charming coastal resort of Paignton in South Devon. The artwork, skillfully created by E Lander, perfectly captures the essence of a fun-filled day at the beach. In this picturesque scene, we are transported to a sandy shore where deckchairs are neatly arranged under colorful striped umbrellas. A vibrant beach ball and bucket and spade lie abandoned on the sand, waiting for their next adventure. Families can be seen enjoying themselves in the background - children building sandcastles while parents relax or take leisurely strolls along the water's edge. The nostalgia-inducing charm of this image is undeniable. It evokes memories of carefree summer days spent basking in sunshine and creating cherished moments with loved ones. Whether you were one of those families captured in this snapshot or simply an admirer from afar, it's impossible not to feel a sense of joy and longing when gazing upon this print. Preserved by NRM/Pictorial Collection at National Railway Museum, this piece serves as a reminder that sometimes all we need is a beautiful beach destination like Paignton to escape our daily routines and immerse ourselves in pure relaxation and happiness.
