Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Holland before the year 1920 / Nederland van vóór 1920, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

www.archive.org/stream/aroundclockineur00howerich#page/14... shows a picture of the beach at Scheveningen and these same mushroom-like things -- apparently called "bath-cars."

digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/id?833167 catalogs them as "beach baskets" in another picture of this beach. The German term is strandkorb. See www.bartelmann.com/bildergalerie/strandkorb/index.html for lots of pictures.

The bath cars or beach baskets are actually beach seats. In the pictures you only see single ones. There are in fact also double ones. They are quite cosy, quiet, simply great. Picture from the front of the seat: http://www.j-p.nl/nieuws/images/rieten_strandstoel_historisch_wijk_aan_zee.jpg You can still buy them (they have evolved with cushions). Look for 'rieten strandstoel'
