40 x 50, Royal Quad, Jersey, The Sunny Channel Island
is a vintage travel poster promoting the island of Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands. The artwork for this poster was created by an artist with the last name Allinson in 1947. The poster was produced for Southern Railway and Great Western Railway to promote their services to Southampton and Weymouth for connecting ferries to Jersey.
The artwork depicts a view of Mont Orgueil Castle, with a rural scene in the foreground featuring houses and cows. Jersey is a self-governing British Crown Dependency located in the English Channel, just off the coast of Normandy, France. It is known for its mild climate, scenic beaches, and rich history, including its occupation by Nazi forces during World War II. |
