For many years, from Victorian times up into the mid-Twentieth Century, a popular pastime was the collection of relief scraps that depicted a wide range of subjects, with the object of creating your own scenes built up from scraps in a scrapbook. One of the many printers of scuh relief scraps was the well-known London based art printers of Raphael Tuck & Sons, noted for colour tracts, booklets and postcards and whose premises were bombed out with total loss in the Blitz of December 1940. They recovered to issue carry on issuing such publications and these scraps are, in many ways, clever items of relief printing.
The bound folder acts as a catalogue and includes sample sheets; these include the circus (Series R6) and a relatively modern take on British Railways
(Series R19). What helps date the catalogue is the mention of the Queen's Coronation in 1953 and the inclusion of samples of Coronation relief scraps (Series R10) that show various officials and flunkies.
The Old Bathing Station, promenade, Bexhill-on-Sea, England, United Kingdom, UK
A seaside scene at Bexhill-on-Sea, England, features a traditional ice cream and refreshment kiosk, known as "The Old Bathing Station," decorated with colorful bunting. The kiosk, elevated on a wooden platform, overlooks the pebble beach where several small sailboats are stored. The image captures a typical day at the promenade, highlighting the enduring appeal of the British seaside.
Kersey Mill is a weatherboarded 17th century corn mill in Suffolk driven by an undershot water wheel with metal buckets. The Mill race comes from the River Brett. The site has been developed for rural tourism with shops, restaurants, nail bar, Pilates etc.. and also holds an excellent vintage vehicle rally on Drive It Day annually.
Two views from our walk to the seafront at the weekend. It's around a mile or so to the beach, but we don't venture that way very often. We had a reason though - related to JJ's job - but more about that later.
The little red kiosk was shut but when it's open it sells ice creams, sweets, drinks and hot ring doughnuts, freshly made! I noticed they have put a new sign on the entrance to South Parade Pier.
