Bather on Beach Cabin Steps – Vintage Sepia Postcard, Annotated 1922

€5,00
Details

A barefoot bather in a dark bathing costume and a patterned bathing cap poses on the wooden steps of a wheeled beach cabin. One arm rests against the doorway, while her legs are crossed. Large wooden wheels and a neighbouring cabin numbered 303 complete this vertical sepia seaside portrait.

The reverse has printed address lines and pencil annotations, including “1922”. This handwritten date is not independently verified as the date of the photograph. No postage stamp or postal cancellation is present.

Condition: The postcard shows age toning, scattered spots, fine scratches and surface abrasions, with wear to the edges and corners. Several dark spots are visible around the bather’s knees, and a ring-shaped mark appears near the top of the doorway. The reverse has pronounced mottled discolouration and pencil writing.

Both scans show the actual postcard offered for sale. Please examine them closely for details of its condition.

An original vintage postcard for collectors of historical bathing costumes, wheeled beach cabins and seaside portraits.
