1. Title: "A Delightful Ride to the Sea: The Tractor Coach of Deauville Transports Children to the Beach in the 1920s" 2. Description: This photograph captures the essence of a simpler time, as a tractor coach packed with excited children makes its way down the sandy roads of Deauville, France, en route to the beach. Dressed in their swimsuits and sun hats, the young passengers eagerly anticipate a day of fun in the sun and water. The fashionable French resort town of Deauville, known for its elegant villas and horse racing, offers this unique mode of transportation to make the journey to the sea more accessible and enjoyable for its youngest visitors. The tractor coach, a popular sight during the 1920s, was an essential part of the seaside experience for children, who would otherwise have to walk long distances to reach the water's edge. The crowded coach, with its cheerful passengers and the backdrop of the azure sea, evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back to a bygone era. 3.
