Southport – Parasols
This is a colourful BR poster for the town from 1955.
This style was part of a brief from the Publicity Department at the Town Hall to market Southport in a new way .
It is deliberately intended to make the resort look “ French “ and continental to counter the fact that people were beginning to go abroad for their holidays.
