EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vintage poster created in the 1920s by F Whatley to promote rail travel to Shrewsbury, a delightful town nestled in the heart of Shropshire. The London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) commissioned this artwork to entice travelers with the allure of Shrewsbury's rich history and picturesque landscapes. The poster transports us back in time as it depicts a charming scene of timbered houses lining the streets, their intricate designs showcasing centuries-old craftsmanship. In the background stands the majestic castle, an emblem of Shrewsbury's storied past. This image encapsulates both the architectural beauty and historical significance that make this town so enchanting. Measuring at 1015 mm x 635 mm, this print captures every detail and nuance of Whatley's exquisite artwork. The colors are vibrant yet nostalgic, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when rail travel was not only practical but also imbued with romance and adventure. As part of the NRM/Pictorial Collection from National Railway Museum, this print is more than just an artistic representation; it serves as a window into our transportation heritage. It reminds us how railways played an essential role in connecting people to places like Shrewsbury – destinations brimming with culture and natural beauty waiting to be explored.
