Blackpool’s New Promenades
This is an LMS commission from about 1930 portraying the social scene on a sunny summer’s evening .
The artist is primarily known for his science fiction art illustrations and he was not commissioned to produce many British railway posters .
He has however managed here to capture the moment, and any connection between science fiction and the weather in Blackpool is purely coincidental !
Painted by the American Artist Chesley Bonstell( 1888- 1986 )
Code number 62244
The outside dimensions of these posters are 70cm x 50cm ( 27.6 inches x 19.7 inches ), designed to fit a standard IKEA
