Photographs taken primarily in the late 1960s at English seaside resorts and recreational spots: Brighton, Blackpool, Margate, Bognor Regis, etc. Ray-Jones developed a style of street photography that is both documentary in nature and full of humor, which would go on to exert a significant influence on subsequent British photography.

Condition: generally good; the hardcover is slightly faded and shows some signs of wear.
