EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the golden era of travel, specifically to the year 1929 when London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) sought to entice holidaymakers to the picturesque coastal resort of Whitley Bay. The poster, skillfully designed by renowned artist John Littlejohns, effortlessly captures the essence of this popular destination in Tyne and Wear. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece, we are transported to a time where bathing belles frolic joyously in their fashionable swimming costumes amidst the sparkling sea. Their carefree laughter mingles with the sound of crashing waves as they lounge gracefully on sun-kissed rocks. Littlejohns' artistic prowess shines through every brushstroke; his attention to detail is evident in each delicate line that brings life and vibrancy to this idyllic scene. It is no wonder that he was not only an accomplished illustrator but also authored books on art and children's literature. Measuring an impressive 1016 mm x 1270 mm, this poster stands as a testament to LNER's commitment towards promoting leisurely seaside getaways. Preserved by National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, it serves as a timeless reminder of Whitley Bay's allure during its heyday.
