EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "10170858 (Historic Bath, GWR/LMS poster, 1946)" takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Bath during the 18th century. The image showcases a woman elegantly dressed in fashionable attire of that era, carrying herself with grace and poise along the picturesque Avon River. The Great Western Railway and London Midland & Scottish Railway have cleverly used this graphic advertisement to entice travelers to explore the historic wonders of Bath. The slogan emphasizes society's preference for Western wear, enticing potential visitors with promises of personal style and sophistication. The artistic design by Frank Newbould captures the essence of this bygone era through meticulous attention to detail and human likeness. It transports viewers into a world where railway posters were not just advertisements but works of art themselves. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the importance placed on graphic design during the 1940s when such posters played a vital role in promoting travel destinations across Britain. This print from National Railway Museum's NRM Pictorial Collection allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and aesthetic beauty encapsulated within this artwork. It serves as a visual reminder of how railways once connected people from all walks of life while showcasing stunning destinations like Bath North East Somerset.
