From the Jubilee Procession in a Cornish Village by A. G. Sherwood Hunter to the vibrant GWR poster showcasing Cornwall in 1938, these glimpses into history transport us to an era of simpler pleasures. The BR poster from the 1950s titled "Downland Rambles" invites us to wander through scenic landscapes, while LMS/LNER's captivating artwork of Aberdeen - The Silver City by the Sea (1923-1947) beckons with its alluring charm. Meanwhile, Swanage's BR poster circa 1955 entices visitors with promises of idyllic coastal experiences. Travel back to June 1922 and witness surfers riding waves at Perranporth beach in Cornwall, their exhilaration palpable even through time. Clevedon Pier stands tall and proud in two stunning photographs - one capturing its essence during daylight hours (N071847), while another showcases its ethereal beauty at sunset (K990506). Further north lies Bamburgh Castle, majestically perched on a rugged coastline (K021974). Its imposing presence serves as a reminder of both strength and elegance amidst nature's grandeur. In contrast, four fishermen from Polperro take center stage in an old photograph dating back to the late 1800s; their resilience echoing through generations. As we journey further along this enchanting coastline, Weston-super-Mare's BR poster from 1948-1965 lures us with promises of leisurely seaside escapes.
