  • A rack of quintessentially English ‘saucy postcards’ are on display in Scarborough, the northern seaside town. Telling jokes to send back to friends and family, they using cartoon characters of buxom women, hen-pecked husbands or sexually-frustrated young men, the humour is bawdy and cheeky - the epitome of seaside holiday kitsch. The best-known saucy seaside postcards were created by Bamforths (founded 1870) and despite the decline in popularity of postcards that are overtly tacky, postcards continue to be a significant economic and cultural aspect of British seaside tourism. In the 1950s, Bamforth postcards were among the most popular of the 18 million items purchased at British resorts.

  • A portrait of English cartoonist, Glen Baxter whose surrealist, absurdist drawings are exhibited in the Eagle on 12th June 1994 in Clerkenwell, London, England. Born in Leeds in 1944, Baxter was trained at the Leeds College of Art. His images, and their corresponding captions, fuse art and language inspired by pulp fiction and adventure comics with intellectual jokes and references. Baxters art has been collected in numerous books, and his work has appeared in The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, and The Independent on Sunday. His simple line-drawings often feature cowboys, gangsters, explorers, and schoolchildren, who utter incongruous intellectual statements regarding art and philosophy.

  • An ad poster with the actor Andile Gumbi as Simba in the Lion King is on the door of a central London telephone kiosk for the Disney production. The man in blue walking past is wearing his taxi driver's license badge around his neck and has perhaps taken a break from his job driving around the capital to pick up an Evening Standard newspaper and some sandwiches from the Pret a Manger food chain.
