Judging by the cars, I think the postcard of Brighton is probably nearer 1950 than 1960. And just look at how many people are watching her sail. Well, it was simply what you did back then! And 'S.S' for Brighton on the card? Tsk, tsk, Mr Card Manufacturer! T.S or R.M.S, please!

What a contrast between the picture of the T.S.Brighton, with all the crowds watching her departure, to the one of Stena Londoner, (thirty years later!) when I suspect that although the chalet houses obscure the view there was nothing like the same numbers of people present; good time lapse type picture indicating changing times etc .
