EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1957, when British Railways (BR) sought to entice travelers to the picturesque coastal town of Whitley Bay in Northumberland. The poster, skillfully designed by Davies, showcases a vibrant scene that perfectly captures the essence of this charming seaside destination. As we gaze upon this vintage artwork, our eyes are immediately drawn to the sandy beaches stretching out before us. The golden shores seem to invite visitors for a leisurely stroll or a refreshing dip in the sparkling sea. Seagulls gracefully glide through the sky above, adding an air of tranquility and freedom. The poster's composition cleverly incorporates elements that evoke a sense of nostalgia and adventure. A couple walks hand-in-hand along the promenade, their smiles reflecting pure joy as they explore all that Whitley Bay has to offer. In the distance, colorful beach huts dotting the coastline add a touch of whimsy and charm.

This BR poster truly encapsulates not only Whitley Bay's allure but also British Railways' commitment to connecting people with these hidden gems across Tyne and Wear. Preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print serves as both a testament to Britain's rich railway history and an invitation for us all to embark on our
