1930s Advertising Competition Drink Fashion Suit Swimsuit
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph, we are transported back to the year 1939, where a stylish lady sits gracefully on an Austin Seven car. Dressed in a fashionable swimsuit that epitomizes the glamour of the era, she holds an apple and a bottle of Bulmers Woodpecker Cider with utter elegance. This remarkable image was submitted as an entry for the prestigious Bulmers Competition, showcasing not only the artistry behind photography but also clever advertising techniques. The woman's radiant smile and confident posture exude charm and sophistication. Her choice of attire perfectly captures the spirit of 1930s fashion, reflecting both societal norms and personal style preferences. The Austin Seven car serves as a symbol of luxury and status during that time period. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this rare gem offers us a glimpse into history while celebrating the beauty of cider culture. It is worth noting that this photo should not be associated with any commercial use; rather it stands as a testament to artistic expression and participation in competitions like Bulmers'. As we admire this timeless image captured almost eight decades ago, let us appreciate its historical significance - reminding us how advertising has evolved over time yet continues to captivate our attention through creativity and ingenuity.
