EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Colin Robertson, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of The British Steel Gala on the 2nd of July 1994. Amidst a sea of cheering spectators, we witness an enchanting moment as float winners Pinocchio wave enthusiastically to the crowd. The image encapsulates the essence of this iconic event, which celebrated both the rich heritage and future aspirations of Teesside's steel industry. As part of the British Steel Corporation (BSC), this gala served as a platform for showcasing their achievements and fostering community spirit. Pinocchio, dressed in his distinctive costume, stands tall atop a beautifully decorated float that represents seasons industry - a testament to the hard work and dedication put forth by all those involved in shaping Teesside's industrial landscape. The summer sun casts its warm glow upon this memorable scene, adding an extra layer of joy and excitement. It is evident from their beaming smiles that Pinocchio and his fellow float participants relish every second spent acknowledging the adoring crowd. Colin Robertson's photograph not only freezes a fleeting moment in time but also serves as a reminder of how events like The British Steel Gala brought people together, creating lasting memories for all who attended.
