EDITORS COMMENTS
The new trawler St Leger, a symbol of resilience and progress in the fishing industry, takes its maiden voyage into the River Humber on a historic day - 20th July 1978. This print captures the essence of an era when shipbuilding and maritime transport were at their peak in England. As the St Leger gracefully slides down the slipway, it represents not only a triumph for Yorkshire's shipbuilding prowess but also signifies hope for those whose livelihoods depend on the bounties of the sea. The Humber Estuary witnesses this momentous occasion with pride as another vessel joins its fleet. The image showcases meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into constructing this magnificent trawler. Its sleek design and sturdy build are testaments to both engineering excellence and Yorkshire's rich industrial heritage. This photograph transports us back to an era where hard work, dedication, and innovation thrived amidst challenging times. It serves as a reminder of how vital shipping was for trade and economic growth in the United Kingdom during this period. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints' staff, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into history - capturing not just a single event but also preserving memories associated with an entire community. It is through such images that we can appreciate our past achievements while inspiring future generations to continue pushing boundaries.
