Product information

Poster produced in 1931 by London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) to promote train services to the popular seaside resort of Clacton-on-Sea in Essex. Illustration shows a frontal view of Clacton pier and harbour surrounded by the town. Fashionably dressed people aboard various boats in the foreground can be seen enjoying a day out on the water. Artwork by Frank Henry Mason (1876-1965), who was educated at HMS Conway and spent time at sea. He painted marine and coastal subjects. In addition to designing railway posters, he was also involved in engineering and shipbuilding in Leeds and Hartlepool.

This is truly an outstanding quality poster. It is printed on Fuji crystal archive photographic paper and is by no means a flimsy poster.
