EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant town of Alnwick in 1979. The image captures the essence of customs and traditions as Alnwick Town Crier George Neighbour takes center stage, bellowing with all his might to open the much-anticipated Alnwick Fair. His mouth wide open, he commands attention with his powerful voice that echoes through the streets. Flanking him on either side are two maidens, Dorothy Brewis and Susan Knox, both dressed in exquisite costumes that reflect a bygone era. Their presence adds charm and elegance to this lively scene. With their mixed age range, they represent a shared enthusiasm for upholding old-world customs. The photograph not only showcases these three individuals but also provides us with an informative glimpse into the role of a town crier during this time period. It reminds us of how important it was for communities to have someone who could shout news and announcements aloud before modern forms of communication took over. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but be drawn into the infectious energy emanating from each person captured within its frame. This print is truly a testament to the rich history and enduring spirit of Alnwick's residents as they come together to celebrate their beloved fair in true 1970s fashion.
