Atomictonytiki,

You know it's funny, I have never seen a photo, postcard, or any other evidence of the Beachcomber Bar at Barry Island. I have heard conflicting reports that Barry Island was the first one and that Bognor Regis was the first one. News is that the Barry Island Beachcomber burned down within a year or two after opening, maybe that's why.

Bigbro,

One of the all-time great John Hinde photos! Thanks for including that from the book of big postcards!

Here are a few more postcards from the Beachcomber Bar at Bognor Regis I found in my computer files. These ones actually show the bar area itself.

Actually some nice art behind the bar.

DC
