This print takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of Gosforth Park on Northumberland Plate day, June 23rd, 1920. The bustling scene captures the essence of a bygone era in horseracing history. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the 1920s, we are transported to a time when flat racing was at its peak and Newcastle's Pitmans Derby drew crowds from far and wide. The image showcases an expansive course filled with eager racegoers who have gathered to witness the thrilling spectacle unfold before their eyes. The grandstands are teeming with spectators eagerly awaiting the start of each race, their excitement palpable in every corner of the frame. It is evident that this event held immense significance for both locals and visitors alike. The photograph perfectly encapsulates not only the sport itself but also offers a glimpse into society during this period. Men dressed in dapper suits stand alongside women adorned in elegant dresses and stylish hats - a true reflection of fashion trends prevalent during that time. As we delve deeper into this historical gem, it becomes clear why Memory Lane Prints has chosen to immortalize it through their collection.
