EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming comic postcard from 1908 captures the lively beach scene at Bognor Regis, a popular seaside destination in West Sussex. The vibrant color drawing depicts bathers of all ages enjoying a sunny day by the sea. From children splashing and building sandcastles to adults lounging on deckchairs, this image showcases the diversity of activities that make a summer holiday memorable. The sender of this postcard has added an extra touch by writing family names against some of the characters, perhaps identifying their own relatives or friends within this bustling crowd. It serves as a delightful reminder of how cherished memories were shared even in those early days. Preserved in the Prints and Drawings Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this print offers us a glimpse into the past and evokes nostalgia for simpler times spent at the seaside. Bognor Regis continues to be a beloved coastal town today, attracting visitors with its sandy beaches and vibrant atmosphere. As we admire this vintage artwork, let it transport us back to an era where carefree laughter filled the air and sun-kissed memories were made under clear blue skies. May it serve as a timeless reminder that no matter how much time passes, there will always be joy found in embracing summer holidays by the sea.
