EDITORS COMMENTS
Margate, Kent - Jolly Bathers Having Fun in the Sea (circa 1920s): A delightful photograph capturing the joy and excitement of a group of bathers enjoying a day at the seaside in Margate, Kent during the 1920s. The image is filled with the spirit of fun and carefree abandon as men, women, and children frolic in the surf, donning colorful and quirky costumes. The women are seen wearing two-piece swimsuits with high-waisted bottoms and short tops, some with capes or shawls to protect from the sun. The men, on the other hand, are dressed in baggy swimsuits with short shorts and caps. The children, clad in knitted bathing suits and sun hats, splash about in the shallows, their laughter echoing through the air. The risqué yet playful atmosphere is further accentuated by the women's bared midrifts and the men's muscular physiques. This photograph is a charming reminder of a simpler time, when a day at the beach was all about having fun and making memories with loved ones.
