"Hawkins: A Journey Through Time and Imagination" Step into the world of Hawkins, where ancient marine reptiles like Ichthyosaurus and Plesiosaurus come to life. In 1935, during the Kings Silver Jubilee Fleet Review, a fantasy illustration showcased these magnificent creatures roaming the depths of the ocean. But it doesn't stop there; it also introduces us to other prehistoric wonders. Witness the Iguanodon and Hylaeosaurus in all their glory as they roam a world long gone by. These extinct marine reptiles captivate our imagination with their unique features and mysterious existence. However, not all is lost in time. The LCC-LFB fatal warehouse fire on Langley Street WC2 reminds us that even relics from history can be vulnerable. Yet amidst tragedy, we find hope in preserving our past through dinosaur models from the 1930s. As we delve deeper into Hawkins' narrative, we stumble upon an enchanting scene - a south-west view of the London Orphan Asylum in Lower Clapton during c1830. This glimpse into Victorian London takes us back to a time when innocence thrived despite adversity. And who could forget Lewis Carroll's whimsical tale? Join Alice at The Mad Hatters Tea Party as she explores Wonderland at a theater near you. Let your imagination run wild as you immerse yourself in this fantastical world filled with peculiar characters and nonsensical riddles. Finally, let's pay homage to HMS Vindictive aircraft carrier from World War I – an embodiment of strength and resilience against adversity. Just like this mighty ship, Hawkins invites us to embark on an extraordinary journey through time where dinosaurs dine alongside humans. Intriguingly curated by Leech Cartoon Dinosaurs, it offers glimpses into various eras that have shaped our collective history. So step inside this captivating realm where reality intertwines with fiction – a place where the past comes alive, and imagination knows no bounds.
