Life's a beach

Before the summer ends let's visit Brighton with Searle and Holiday magazine. . .





The original cropped up on eBay a few years back but it had some tear damage



I've posted these wonderful, full colour images from 'Lilliput' magazine (1947) before but they're worth looking at in this context.





This Punch cover is a decade later 14th August 1957



This was a short article in 'Holiday' magazine on Russian resort Yalta


 The Yalta image above is echoed in Searle's depiction of American beach scenes such as this Florida beach again for 'Holiday' magazine.


Searle's Hawaii beach scenes are incredible



Some just go to the beach to get away from it all
