EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the essence of a bygone era, this print transports us back to the summer of 1935 in Llandudno, North Wales. As holidaymakers stroll along the pier, their curiosity is piqued by the allure of 'What The Butler Saw' picture peep shows. Intrigued visitors line up along the railings, eagerly awaiting their turn to catch a glimpse into another world. Dressed in fashionable swimwear and beachwear of the time, these women exude an air of elegance as they lean forward with anticipation. The fairground stall stands proudly amidst its surroundings, offering a momentary escape from reality through its mutoscopes. With a touch of humor and comic charm, these vintage contraptions provide entertainment for all ages. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates a leisurely day at the seaside - sun-drenched skies above and waves crashing against the shore below. The pier itself acts as both a vantage point and gathering place for tourists seeking amusement on their vacation. Elegantly captured by E. Dean's lens, this archival piece not only showcases fashion trends but also offers us a glimpse into past leisure activities enjoyed by generations before us. It serves as a reminder that even in simpler times, people sought moments of joy and wonderment.
