EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the essence of communication in the late 19th or early 20th century. The image showcases a postman diligently delivering a message from Blackpool, a popular seaside resort town in Lancashire, Great Britain. Clad in his distinguished uniform, this mail merchant embodies reliability and efficiency. The vibrant colors of the postcard reflect the joyous atmosphere of summer clothes worn by both men and women strolling along Blackpool's promenade. The lithograph illustration beautifully depicts an era when handwritten letters were treasured means of connection. In an age before instant messaging and emails, receiving a letter was an eagerly anticipated event that brought news, announcements, and heartfelt messages to people's doorsteps. This postman played a crucial role as he traversed the streets with his bag full of correspondence. The image not only celebrates the artistry involved in creating these charming postcards but also serves as a reminder of our rich postal history. It transports us back to simpler times when personal connections were nurtured through handwritten words on paper. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Valerie Jackson Harris Collection, let us appreciate how far we have come while cherishing the nostalgia it evokes for an era defined by tangible messages delivered with care by dedicated individuals like this diligent postman.
