Step into comfort as you embark on your journey north for the holidays with Travel by Midland. This vintage advertisement from The Bystander, published on the 2nd of August, 1922, invites you to experience a relaxing and pleasant journey with Midland. The image of a well-dressed family, seated in a spacious and well-lit railway carriage, exudes a sense of tranquility and ease. The caption below reads, "Going north for the holidays? Travel by Midland for comfort." The advertisement is surrounded by other ads from the era, including one for Colgate's Shaving Stick and another for Debenham & Freebody. The Colgate ad features a sharp, clean-shaven man, emphasizing the importance of personal grooming, while the Debenham & Freebody ad showcases a variety of fashionable clothing and accessories for women. The 1920s were a time of great innovation and progress, and advertising played a significant role in shaping consumer culture. This Travel by Midland ad, with its promise of comfort and relaxation, speaks to the desire for a more enjoyable travel experience during the holiday season. As you plan your own journey north, take a moment to appreciate the history and nostalgia of this charming advertisement.
