On the beach at Scarborough on the east coast of Yorkshire, England, in the 1930s. The elderly ladies cover up in hats, overcoats and even a fur collar while the gentleman wears a collar and tie. Vintage photograph of circa 1935 from a Yorkshire family collection showing three generations enjoying a day on the sands.


Yorkshire, England, UK: ‘All on the sands together’ - but with some members of this three-generation 1930s British family perhaps more suitably dressed than others for a summer day on the beach. While a young boy sits on the sand at a seaside resort in a one-piece bathing costume, his father wears a collar and tie - and two elderly female relatives sit in their deckchairs fully covered up. They protect themselves from sunburn while also protecting their modesty in funereal black, with long dresses, overcoats, hats - and even a fur collar. This vintage monochrome photograph comes from a Yorkshire family collection and it was shot at Scarborough, Yorkshire, around 1935 or 1936.
