EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tees Dock. 11th April 1990" takes us back to a significant moment in history, capturing the essence of Teesport Docks on that fateful day. As we delve into the image, our eyes are drawn to an array of intriguing elements that tell a story of arms and customs. In the foreground, we observe a massive pipe being transported by a ship, symbolizing the industrial prowess and maritime importance of Middlesbrough's Teesside region. However, it is not just any ordinary cargo; this pipe holds deeper significance as it is connected to Iraq and its infamous supergun project. The presence of armed guards further intensifies the scene, reminding us of the delicate political climate surrounding international arms trade during the 1990s. The gun-toting Gur Mariner stands tall against an imposing backdrop of towering cranes and ships at dockside. This photograph from Memory Lane Prints invites us to reflect upon how global events can impact local communities like Teesside. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane moments within port operations can carry historical weight when viewed through a wider lens. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time by Teesside Archive DJ, let us appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and its ability to transport us back two decades ago – allowing for reflection on our shared past while contemplating what lies ahead for this vibrant region steeped in maritime heritage.
