EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of Torquay in 1939 takes us back to a bygone era, showcasing the charm and beauty of this coastal town in Devon, England. The photograph, part of the Senior Service Britain from the Air cigarette card series, offers a unique perspective on Torquay's landscape. From above, we can appreciate the stunning contrast between land and sea. The sparkling waters of the English Channel embrace the coastline while hillside houses dotting the area create an idyllic setting. The image captures a sunny day with clear skies that highlight Torquay's natural splendor. The iconic pier stretches out into the sea, inviting visitors to explore its delights. This structure has stood as a symbol of leisure and entertainment for generations of tourists who flock to this seaside destination. Its presence adds character and history to an already picturesque scene. In black and white monochrome tones, this print exudes nostalgia and transports us back to 1930s Britain.
