We discovered this original World War II poster in a box of old books bought at auction. And while the books were only so-so, we all fell in love with the poster. We loved the history behind it. And the way the simplicity of the design matched the simplicity of the message. But what a message! (It makes me feel better just reading it.) Anyway, we immediately had the poster framed and put up on display - where it drew so much comment, we had it reproduced for sale.

What was it William Morris said? Have nothing that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful? Well, thanks to the artistry of the superb artist and engraver, Harry Brockway, we believe our humble little mug to be just that, both useful and beautiful. Easy to hold in hard-to-break pottery, Brockway's lovely (and engagingly witty) engraving of our Station facade surrounds the whole. Available in blue or black on a cream background.
