  • Shop owner writes a reduced price on an upright mirror with bright furniture on sale in a London street.A shop owner writes a reduced price on an upright mirror with bright furniture on sale in a London street. Writing on the glass with a marker pen the man has decided to tell us the original price of this item was #250 and he writes down a new, reduced value of #170, making us believe there are massive savings to be had on this home furnishing. Behind him is a garish pink sofa chair that was made in Egypt and imported to the UK capital where it and other pieces sit in bright sunshine, their colours looking tacky and cheap.

  • A young boy looks carefully at the many saucy postcards on sale outside a seaside shop, on 19th July 1993, in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. 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.
