Product Information
The Yorkshire-based publisher Bamforth & Co started producing 'saucy' postcards in 1910. These cheeky designs became synonymous with the English seaside resorts where they were sold, but were exported all over the world. After WW2, Bamforth artists began to satirise the classic comic archetypes that still resonate today - henpecked husbands, naughty nurses and randy milkmen. Contemporary concerns ranging from the contraceptive pill to the Space Race also received the irreverent Bamforth treatment. Saucy Postcards: The Bamforth Collection celebrates the golden age of these comic gems, with a selection of more than 250 cards originally published from the early 1950s to the mid-1970s. The book's introduction reveals the story behind the company, and the battles with the postcard censorship committees that resulted in almost 150 prosecutions.Product Identifiers

SEASIDE SAUCE
Absolutely brilliant book! Reminds me of coming home from holiday as a child armed with lots more saucy postcards to add to my collection. Wonder what happened to them????? This makes a great substitute for my dearly missed collection.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

"George - the ceiling needs painting!"
A well-researched and beautifully presented overview of the distinctly British phenomenon that was the humorous seaside postcard. Often retrospectively criticised by posh, right-on types for their stereotyped portrayals of women (big, busty, scantily-clad, sexy) and men (puny, desperate, red-faced, inadequate), these cards were (and are) genuinely anarchic, funny and brilliantly rendered, and the Bamforth products were the best in the business. Not for the po-faced!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
