Description: Midland & Great Northern Railway Joint Committee luggage label, as shown The M.& G.N.R. was formed by the Midland Railway & Great Northern Railway Companies around 1890, taken over by the LMS & LNER in 1923 and the entity existed through until 31.12.1947. Destination labels were printed by each Company in their house style, although most are GNR or LNER types. The full title was used but from around 1907, either the full title or just the initials, printed in various typefaces and they range in size from 78mm x 52mm to 72mm x 43mm. Many also had printing dates & other information from around 1907, many with printers initials where sub contracted out, such as W. & S. Ltd (Waterlow & Sons), H-C. Co./Ltd. or H-C.G - Haycock-Cadle (& Graham) Pre-grouping railway labels from England, Wales & Scotland date from before January 1923, when the GWR became larger and the LMS, LNER & SR were formed from an amalgamation of Companies in their area of operation. In turn these Companies were nationalised on 1st January 1948 to form British Railways.
