EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and humorous colour lithograph print captures the essence of a summer day in Blackpool, England in the early 20th century. The satirical drawing depicts a jolly woman enjoying her time at the beach, dressed in her finest attire and carrying an umbrella to shield herself from the sun.
The caption "By gum! Blackpool" adds a touch of local Lancashire dialect to the scene, as the woman exclaims that her seaside holiday is doing her a world of good. With a hint of self-deprecating humor, she jokes that if she had another sixpence, she would stay for another week.
The vibrant colours and playful composition make this postcard a delightful snapshot of British seaside culture during this era. The exaggerated figure of the woman pokes fun at societal norms around beauty and body image, adding an element of light-hearted satire to the scene.
Whether you're reminiscing about summers spent by the sea or simply looking for a whimsical piece to brighten up your space, this print is sure to bring joy and laughter into your home. Let it transport you back in time to a simpler era when holidays were filled with sunshine, laughter, and plenty of By gum! moments.
