These were in the corridor of the Carron to Mumbai Restaurant, Stonehaven. There was a railway theme.

Despite the date, 1916, this Indian Motocycle poster has an Art Deco background:-

This one’s more film noir, though:-

On our visit to the Carron to Mumbai Restaurant We were seated in a corner but we soon discovered it was near to the main entrance. At a break I took the opportunity to photograph the porch.

On the way down from Peterhead we made our way to the revamped Carron Restaurant, Stonehaven, now trading as an Indian Restaurant under the name Carron to Mumbai.
We came in through the Evan Street entrance (which is photographed in this post) through a bar area.

We then walked down a corridor lined with Art Deco posters. After surrendering our coats to be hung up we entered the restaurant proper.
The glazing is superb – and still original!:-

What a visual experience! The food was very good as well. If you’re ever in Stonehaven you must take this in.
