EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the joy and innocence of childhood during the Edwardian era, as three children delight in the water wearing Swimeesy Buoys, a popular swimming aid invented two years prior in 1907. The Swimeesy Buoy, also known as a dinghy or donut float, was an essential addition to any family's summer beach essentials. The buoys, which resembled large inflatable rings with wings, provided children with added safety and confidence while they explored the sea. The children in the photograph are dressed in fashionable swim costumes of the time, which were designed to protect the modesty of young swimmers. The girls wear long-sleeved one-piece suits with high necklines and fitted bodices, while the boy dons a pair of short trunks. The children's expressions of pure happiness and excitement as they float in the water are a testament to the joy that the Swimeesy Buoy brought to families during the 1900s. The Swimeesy Buoy was a significant innovation in the realm of swimming aids, offering a more comfortable and effective alternative to traditional armbands. Its popularity soared during the summer season, and it became a staple accessory for families who spent their days at the beach. This photograph, taken in 1909, is a beautiful reminder of a simpler time, when the pleasures of the sea and the simple joy of childhood were the focus of summer days.
