Original vintage 1946 Steam Packet / railway notice poster titled:
“NOTICE OF REDUCTION IN SEA SURCHARGES”
This official transport notice was issued by railway and shipping companies operating between Great Britain, Ireland, and the Isle of Man, detailing reduced rates for the conveyance of merchandise, parcels, and livestock.
The poster includes detailed rate tables covering parcels, miscellaneous goods, and livestock such as horses, cattle, pigs, and sheep. It also references the Railways (Additional Charges) Order, 1946, placing it firmly in the immediate post-war period.
The poster is in relatively good condition. It has previously been framed, however the frame and glass became damaged and were removed. When framed, it displayed very well and lay flat under the glass. It should look great again once reframed.
The image showing the poster in a frame is for illustration purposes only. Please refer to the other images for accurate detail and condition.
