EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era in England, specifically in the small mining village of Philadelphia in Tyne and Wear, Newcastle. The focal point of the image is the corner post office, a quaint and historical building that served as a hub for communication and community interaction.
The architecture of the post office reflects its time period, likely dating back to the 1950s when this snapshot was taken. Its presence on the corner symbolizes its importance as a central meeting place for villagers to gather news, send letters, and connect with one another.
Despite its small size, Philadelphia holds significant historical value as part of England's industrial past. The mining industry played a crucial role in shaping this village's identity and economy, making it an integral part of Tyne and Wear's heritage.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness daily life unfolding at this charming corner post office. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when handwritten letters were cherished forms of communication and community ties were strong.
Through Rights Managed licensing from Mary Evans Prints Online, we have access to this evocative piece of history that encapsulates the spirit of Philadelphia in all its nostalgic glory.
