A hint of summer on a grey winter's day : c.1924/5 poster by Gregory Brown, one of a series issued by Bobby's, the drapers & departmental stores owner who at the time commissioned some noted artists & designers for their publicity. Brown was well known for his LNER posters.

Summer Sale : Bobby & Co. Ltd. : poster : in Commercial Art : August 1925 : designed by Gregory Brown. The poster is dominated by a seaside view, steep hills & cliffs above the sea beyond whilst a cluster of stylised white houses with red roofs cluster against the shore. The lettering reads "Summer Sale" above and "Bobby & Co. Ltd." is ranged across the left lower edge of the illustration and down below. The towns were the branches were found is below in red along with a decorative border along the lower edge.

Undoubtedly the work of the poster artist Gregory Brown this poster was shown as an insert to the August 1925 edition of Commercial Art alongside an article "A Draper who makes posters worthwhile". The English South Coast based department stores of Bobby's issued some fine publicity during the inter-war period and the article describes the circumstances that attended the start of the company's interest.

Mr A.F. Bobby had approached Mr Stanley Toms of Derry & Toms, the London store for advice and when, in 1920, Derry & Toms were acquired by Barker's who decided to stop Derry & Toms poster campaign, Bobby's were able to acquire several unused designs by a number of well known poster artists along with introductions. Gregory Brown was certainly an acknowledged force in the new British poster style and he would become one of the London & North Eastern Railway's 'stable' of poster artists. Bobby's would commission a goodly number of posters from Brown and other artists.

Bobby's were a well-known store chain that had branches in the 'favoured' and 'select' English south coast resorts of Margate, Cliftonville, Eastbourne, Bournemouth, Folkestone and Torquay - with outposts at Exeter, Southport and Leamington Spa. I feel Miss Marple would have shopped there! Bobby's were founded in Margate in 1887 and were bought by Debenhams in 1927. The name vanished in c.1972.
