EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1958 showcases a rectangular counter-card featuring the iconic "Falmouth for Orders" painting. The artwork depicts a breathtaking scene at dusk or dawn, with cloudy skies serving as the backdrop for a large white and yellow ship anchored near the coast. A smaller vessel can be seen nearby, adding to the maritime charm of this picturesque moment. The vibrant yellow text below boldly states "Players Please" perfectly complementing the overall composition. In the bottom left corner, we catch a glimpse of the sailor lifebuoy trademark, symbolizing adventure and safety on these seafaring journeys. This image transports us back in time to an era when John Player and Sons' Players Navy Cut tobacco was synonymous with quality and sophistication. While not mentioning commercial use, it is impossible to ignore how seamlessly this advertisement blends into its surroundings - capturing both Nottingham's rich history and its connection to naval traditions. As we admire this stunning sunset scene, one cannot help but imagine sailors donning their uniforms while enjoying their well-deserved breaks on board these magnificent ships. Filled with nostalgia and longing for simpler times, this print serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with sailing, seascapes, and all things maritime.
