Newspaper Cuttings

Here are some cuttings from newspapers, magazines and other sources that didn't make it into the finished book.

Please note that some of these cuttings were rejected by the publishers because their quality was considered to be unsuitable for publication. All photographs used in the book have been digitally cleaned and most are as good as new; many of the photographs presented in this section of the Pennies by the Sea website have not been 'cleaned' and are therefore seen in their raw format.
