Blackpool Rock

A sugary seaside souvenir makes the perfect present from Blackpool.

This lovely colour reel from filmmaker Robert Pye is a short but sweet memento of Blackpool's seafront and one of its attractions - a stall selling seaside rock. The stallholder's sales patter is clearly working its charms on the holidaymakers perusing the confectionery, and his customers look delighted as they depart with their sugary purchases. You can't go home without a souvenir, after all.
