EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the lively atmosphere of Shanklin's bustling high street in the summer of 1936. The scene is filled with a sense of excitement and celebration as people of all ages gather to mark the accession of King George VI. The main road is lined with shops and buildings, their facades adorned with streamers and decorations in red, white, and gold, the colors of the British monarchy. Pedestrians in smart hats and dresses, as well as casual attire, navigate the crowded pavements, while vehicles, including a CWS Cooperative Society van, make their way through the traffic. The air is filled with the sounds of chatter, laughter, and the occasional toot of a car horn. The sense of community and unity is palpable, as the people of Shanklin come together to celebrate this historic moment in British history. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1930s and the era of King George VI's reign.
