In this print titled "Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother leaving Readheads shipyard, South Shields" we are transported back to the 1940s amidst the bustling atmosphere of Newcastle upon Tyne. It is April 8th, 1943, a time when industry and resilience were at their peak during the Second World War. As crowds gather in anticipation, we witness a moment of great significance as Queen Elizabeth, affectionately known as the Queen Mother, bids farewell to Readheads shipyard. With her regal poise and grace, she stands on the deck of a majestic vessel surrounded by well-wishers waving fervently. This poignant image captures not only royalty but also symbolizes unity and strength during challenging times. The war had brought communities together like never before; it was a period where every individual played their part in supporting the nation's efforts.
