| | THE BEACH
A good time is the order of the day for these folks "Fun at the Beach", c. 1914. A generation earlier men would have come to the beach wearing a suit and hat, and the women in long dresses and a hat. That was at the end of the Victorian Era, so while these bathing suits may seem odd to us today these folks felt quite liberated in their time.
