EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage poster from 1952, created by the talented artist Harry Hudson Rodmell, takes us back to an era of bustling trade and travel. Commissioned by British Railways (BR) and Associated Humber Lines, it aims to promote regular freight and passenger services from Hull and Goole to various Continental ports including Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Hamburg, and Copenhagen. The focal point of this artwork is a magnificent steamer vessel majestically docked in port. Its imposing presence symbolizes the power and efficiency of these transportation services that connected Britain with Europe's thriving cities. The ship's sleek design showcases the advancements made in maritime technology during that time. Rodmell skillfully captures the essence of adventure through his use of vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. The poster exudes a sense of excitement as it invites viewers to embark on a journey across "The Continent via Hull & Goole". It serves as both an advertisement for British Railways' offerings as well as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when traveling by sea was still prevalent. Preserved within the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print not only represents an important chapter in transportation history but also serves as a visual testament to the artistic talent that brought such promotional materials to life.
