Congratulations to those who guessed that yesterdays #birdsong was sung by our national and seasonal favourite – the Robin. Look out for our next bird song quiz later today!
Sharing a little #VitaminN with you today for those who can't get outside to see the real thing. This 'Friend to the Farmer' #poster from the 1952 series was painted by Harold Hussey #MuseumFromHome #ArtHelps
Wishing #DavidGentleman a very Happy 90th Birthday #OnThisDay . A student @RCA taught by Edward Bawden & John Nash, also Shell artists, these beautiful watercolour #paintings of the British countryside for the 1964 @Shell_UKLtd Book of Roads shows his great talent
It's #Snowing out there folks!
The @metoffice have multiple #ice and #snow warnings - check before you travel or else you may become 'a friend in need' like these drivers in our 1912 @Shell_UKLtd postcard.
#SnowDay #WeatherAware
@365posterblog1 We believe that this is a cheeky portrait by the artist of Jack Beddington as a farmer - Jack was Shell Marketing Manager at the time! Certainly a likeness to this sketch of Jack (bleow)
#Day16 #CountdowntoChristmas
Old King Cole was a merry old soul,
A merry old soul was he,
He called for his coat
And he called for his car
And away on @Shell_UKLtd went he!
#Day12 #CountdownToChristmas Hope you're all getting ready for Christmas jumper day tomorrow! They certainly were ready in this 1930 Shell Transport poster! #Howbolddoyougo #Christmasjumpers #ChristmasJumperDay
A lovely autumnal #TongueOutTuesday from these two Collies! This poster was painted by Foster Jarrett for the 1930s @Shell_UKLtd 'Quick Starting Pair' campaign - when starting your engine on a colder morning was resolved by using both Shell oil and petrol.
More fabulous #posters from students of Oak Lodge School in the New Forest. They were inspired by @Shell_UKLtd poster collection and @Beaulieu_Hants cars and grounds - such amazing talent shown here!
Of course we can't talk about #Love for #Archive30 without sharing some of our #Valentine cards. These were sent anonymously by @Shell_UKLtd to female customers from 1938 to the mid 1970s. The clues to the sender came from the poems and the shells scattered around the drawings!
