"Sea-Side" is a colorful lithograph from the "World's Dudes" series of trading cards created by Allen & Ginter in 1888. The card depicts a man in a striped bathing suit, holding a towel, standing on the shore. The image is a humorous portrayal of a man enjoying a day at the beach, with a focus on his exaggerated features and clothing. These cards were distributed with Allen & Ginter's brand of cigarettes, making them a popular collectible item for consumers at the time.
