Most are modest, some dare to smoke and strike suggestive poses. Others go so far as to expose an inch of flesh as they coyly wring seawater from their swim dresses. Enjoy over 100 hand-tinted postcard images, snapped at the turn of the 20th Century. It was an era when women may have been clothed from head to toe, but they were women nonetheless. Dressed in the period's best beach fashions, bold Victorians flirt with the camera, creating charming and beguiling images.
