Cheeky Postcards

Cheeky postcards! They are a bit of fun and so much part of the history of English seaside resorts and have huge nostalgia value. We have over 50 cards to make you giggle or blush !

What was once vulgar to the point of illegality now seems impossibly innocent. That’s hardly a revelation in itself; times change, mores change with them. But the curious thing is that the humour of the seaside postcard, full of nudge-wink exaggeration and innuendo, remains popular.
