Banned Postcards

In the early 1950s, a Postcard Censorship Board was created in Blackpool. Their aim was to decide which postcards could be sold in the resort and which seaside postcards were too saucy to be sold.

Join us for an illustrated talk by Tony Sharkey, Showtown volunteer, as we take a look at and discuss these postcards.
