Blackpool Illuminations vintage postmark print

Description

A lively art print featuring a classic vintage postmark that publicised Blackpool illuminations in the golden age of letters, postcards and British seaside holidays.

The sixties and seventies saw a flowering of ink-stamped postmarks advertising UK towns, cities and national parks. Quirky, bold and memorable, these small works in ink brightened up many a breakfast and set people dreaming of day trips and holidays to come.

This punchy gem from Blackpool graced doormats and breakfast tables with its bold image of the tower during 1966.

Now you can enjoy it – digitally restored – on a premium print that shows off its beauty, character and the lovely variation of ink & tone that makes every postmark unique.

A great gift for anyone who comes from or loves Blackpool.
