In this print titled "Two women, the shrewdest judges in the market were discussing prospects when this picture was taken after the landing of the Easter catches on the Fish Quay at North Shields" we are transported back to a bustling scene in April 1939. The image captures two remarkable women engrossed in conversation, their faces reflecting years of experience and wisdom as they discuss the prospects of their trade. Standing against a backdrop of fishing boats and crates filled with fresh catch, these women embody resilience and determination that defined North Shields' thriving fish industry during the 1930s. Their presence on the quay signifies their integral role within this male-dominated field, challenging societal norms and proving themselves as equals amongst their peers. The photograph offers a glimpse into an era where hard work was etched onto every weathered face. These women's expertise is evident; they possess an innate ability to discern quality amidst countless fish varieties spread before them. Their knowledge extends beyond mere commerce; it represents generations of familial tradition passed down through time. As we admire this snapshot frozen in history, we are reminded not only of these extraordinary individuals but also of an entire community reliant upon their dedication. This image serves as a testament to both personal triumphs and collective achievements within North Shields' fishing industry during its heyday. This Memory Lane Print transports us back to a bygone era where resilience met opportunity on bustling quaysides like this one – forever capturing moments that shaped our past.
