EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the summer of 1981 in Belfast, where the city is buzzing with excitement and anticipation for the British Royal Wedding. The image captures two young boys, Paul Fitzsimmons and Stephen Stewart, both aged 16, eagerly helping to hang out colorful bunting along the streets of East Belfast. As preparations unfold for this momentous occasion, it becomes evident that even in a time of political unrest and division, unity can be found through shared celebrations. The Stradtown traders on Belmont Road take it upon themselves to lead by example and ensure their customers fully embrace the spirit of this grand event. The photograph not only showcases these determined traders but also serves as a reminder of how significant royal weddings were during that era. It encapsulates a sense of humor prevalent among the people at that time – finding joy in coming together despite any challenges they may face. This snapshot from the past offers us a glimpse into an era when royalty held great importance and had the power to unite communities. It reminds us that amidst larger historical events unfolding around them, ordinary individuals like Paul Fitzsimmons and Stephen Stewart played their part in creating an atmosphere filled with excitement and merriment. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this photograph allows us to reflect on our shared history while appreciating those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes to make such occasions memorable for all.
