EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vibrant and captivating print by Peter Stone, we are transported back to the 1985 Battersea Easter Parade. The image showcases a group of Pearly Kings and Queens marching proudly through the streets, their elaborate costumes shining with countless mother-of-pearl buttons meticulously sewn onto every inch of fabric. The Pearly Kings and Queens were an iconic symbol of London's East End during the early 20th century, known for their charitable work and dedication to preserving traditional coster customs. As they parade through Battersea on that sunny April day, their beaming smiles reflect the joyous atmosphere surrounding them. The men and women in fancy dress exude happiness as they wave at the cheering crowd lining the streets. Their outfits are a testament to their creativity and attention to detail; each one uniquely adorned with intricate patterns made from thousands of shimmering buttons. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also a sense of community spirit that transcends generations. It reminds us of how traditions can bring people together, uniting them under shared values and causes. Peter Stone's lens has immortalized this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, allowing us to relive this enchanting event decades later.
