EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling Whitby Piers on Regatta Day in the 1910s with this print by Grenville Collins. The scene is alive with excitement as crowds of onlookers gather along the pier, eagerly awaiting the start of the regatta. The atmosphere is electric, filled with anticipation and energy.
In the background, two iconic lighthouses stand tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, guiding ships safely into port. Their presence adds a sense of history and tradition to this lively event.
The postcard captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing not only the beauty of Whitby's coastal landscape but also the vibrant community spirit that thrived during these annual celebrations. From families enjoying picnics on blankets to sailors preparing their boats for competition, every detail tells a story of camaraderie and joy.
As you gaze at this stunning image, you can almost hear the sounds of laughter and cheering mingling with seagulls' cries overhead. It's a reminder of simpler times when life revolved around shared experiences and cherished traditions.
Whether you have fond memories of attending regattas yourself or simply appreciate historical photography, this print is sure to transport you back to an era where Whitby Piers were at the heart of summer festivities in North Yorkshire.
