EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the lively Coronation Celebrations of 1902 in Scarborough, Yorkshire, England, with a focus on John Rowntree & Sons Cafe. The image is filled with a sense of excitement and jubilation as the townsfolk gathered to mark the momentous occasion of King Edward VII's coronation. John Rowntree & Sons Cafe, a well-known local establishment, stands proudly in the background, adorned with bunting and Union Jack flags. The cafe's red and white striped awning and ornate signage add a touch of elegance to the scene. The cafe's proprietors, John, his sons, and their staff, are seen serving tea and cakes to the throngs of people gathered outside. The atmosphere is bustling, with children playing and adults chatting excitedly, all dressed in their Sunday best. The Coronation Celebrations were a time of unity and community spirit, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the sights, sounds, and feelings of the day. The image also provides a snapshot of life in early 20th century England, with its horse-drawn carriages, traditional clothing, and the simple pleasure of sharing a cup of tea and a cake with friends and neighbors. This photograph is a treasure trove of history, offering a unique perspective on a bygone era and the significance of community gatherings in celebrating national events. The image is a reminder of the power of tradition and the importance of coming together to mark important milestones in history.
