Newcastle upon Tyne
The Mighty Bridges
This poster was commissioned by the Newcastle Poster Company in 2013 to complement the only other two of the city that we have records of - one by Sir Frank Brangwyn and the second , the 1929 poster for the Newcastle Exhibition by Septimus Scott .
It is intended to be a portrayal of the scene in 1938, when the " Mallard " did indeed pull trains over the high level bridge , but the keen eye will spot a slight extension of Artistic Licence.
