EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1930s on the banks of the majestic River Tyne. Spectators line up along the river's edge, their eyes fixed on a remarkable sight unfolding before them. The hull of the Former Crack liner ship Olympic dominates the scene as it gracefully glides through the water, leaving Jarrow behind and embarking on its final journey towards Inverkeithing. Amongst those watching are children filled with awe and wonderment, their faces lit up with excitement. They stand alongside adults who share in their enthusiasm for ships and transport. Tugs can be seen nearby, providing assistance to ensure a smooth passage for this grand vessel. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects an era when maritime travel was at its peak. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with these colossal structures that traverse vast oceans. As we gaze upon this image by NCJ, we cannot help but feel connected to history - witnessing both progress and nostalgia intertwined within one frame. The anticipation in the air is palpable; everyone present knows they are witnessing something extraordinary - an iconic ship bidding farewell to its former glory. Let us cherish this snapshot from yesteryears, where ordinary people gather along riverbanks to witness extraordinary events unfold before their very eyes – forever etched into memory through photographs like these from Memory Lane Prints.
