This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the North Stafford Hotel, LMS poster from 1923-1947. Created by the London Midland & Scottish Railway, this enchanting artwork aimed to promote Stoke-on-Trent and its renowned Potteries. The poster's vibrant colors and intricate details transport us back in time to an era when railway travel was at its peak. The North Stafford Hotel stands proudly in the foreground, exuding elegance and grandeur with its imposing architecture. Its presence symbolizes not only a place of accommodation but also serves as a gateway to Stoke-on-Trent's rich cultural heritage. Intriguingly, nestled within this masterpiece is a potter meticulously crafting his creation – an homage to the city's world-famous pottery industry. This subtle inclusion reminds us of Stoke-on-Trent's reputation as the heartland of ceramics production during that period. As we delve into this image further, we can almost imagine ourselves strolling through the bustling streets of Stoke-on-Trent, captivated by its vibrant atmosphere and surrounded by countless pottery workshops showcasing their exquisite wares. Preserved within the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic brilliance behind such promotional posters but also provides a glimpse into how railway companies played an essential role in promoting local tourism destinations across Britain.
