EDITORS COMMENTS
What a right royal present for Saltburn's Victorian celebrations! In this photo print, we are transported back to the 12th of August 1990, when Queen Victoria herself graced the resort with her presence. The occasion was made even more special as a magnificent Victorian postbox was installed at Milton Street, Saltburn. Queen Victoria, portrayed by the talented Alice De Mellet De Bonas, seemed thoroughly amused by the festivities. Dressed in period attire, she warmly greeted Ben Day, a dedicated postman also donning traditional garb. The post office had replaced one of its modern postboxes with this superb Victorian-style replica. The image captures not only the attention to detail in recreating historical traditions but also showcases the community's commitment to preserving their heritage. Saltburn-by-the-Sea truly came alive during its annual Victorian Week celebration. This photograph is a delightful reminder of an era gone by - costumes and fancy dress bringing history to life once again. It symbolizes how small towns like Saltburn hold dear their customs and continue to honor them through these cherished events. Memory Lane Prints has beautifully preserved this moment from our past for us all to enjoy today. Let it transport you back in time and immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere of Saltburn's Victorian celebrations.
