EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1930s, showcasing a remarkable poster produced for the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER). The artwork, skillfully crafted by Frank H Mason, offers a glimpse into the interior of a vast wool warehouse in Hull. As we delve into this image, we are transported to an era where raw materials played a vital role in shaping industries. Mason's sketch beautifully captures the essence of this bustling hub of activity. Rows upon rows of neatly stacked wool bales fill the expansive space, creating an impressive sight. The attention to detail is impeccable; every strand and texture seems almost tangible through his masterful strokes. Printed by Chorley & Pickersgill Ltd, renowned lithographers from Leeds, this poster exemplifies their commitment to delivering high-quality prints that captivate audiences. It serves as both an advertisement for LNER's services and a celebration of Hull's significance as one of Humberside's largest railway hubs. The National Railway Museum has preserved this piece within its Pictorial Collection with great care and reverence. Through this photograph print, we are granted access to not only historical transportation but also glimpses into various industries that relied on railways for their success. As we admire this stunning artwork today, let us appreciate the intricate connection between transportation networks and economic growth during times gone by.
