EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the GWR Publicity Guide - Glorious Devon, 1934, a remarkable piece of history preserved at the STEAM Museum of the GWR. Transporting us back to an era when travel was a luxurious adventure, this guide encapsulates the allure and charm of Devon in all its glory. The image exudes nostalgia with its vintage aesthetic and sepia tones. It depicts a picturesque scene from yesteryears, where rolling hills meet pristine beaches kissed by gentle waves. The guide itself is meticulously designed, reflecting the attention to detail that characterized Great Western Railway's commitment to excellence. As we gaze upon this snapshot from 1934, our imagination takes flight as we envision elegant travelers perusing these very pages for inspiration on their next holiday destination. From quaint fishing villages like Clovelly to iconic landmarks such as Dartmoor National Park and Exeter Cathedral, Glorious Devon beckons with promises of unforgettable experiences. Beyond its visual appeal lies a deeper appreciation for how publicizing destinations played an integral role in shaping tourism during that time period. This artifact serves as a testament to the power of advertising and captures an important chapter in both railway and British cultural history. Preserved within these walls at STEAM Museum of the GWR, this print invites us to step into another era and marvel at the beauty that once enticed visitors towards glorious Devonshire shores.
