Description: | This promotional postcard was issued by the Central London Railway (C.L.R.) as a novelty to give away. The image on the left shows a Tube train entering a C.L.R. station platform; on the right is a red pillar box with the words 'Quickest way to Exhibition by Tube' printed on the front. The pillar box opens to reveal a string of folded photos of C.L.R. destinations.
The exhibition referred to is the Franco-British Exhibition held in 1908 at White City exhibition ground. The nearest Tube station was Wood Lane (later renamed White City). | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport | Temporal: | 1908 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Printer : H G Ltd | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
