Deborah Lundbech's photos with the keyword: 1958

September's Monthly Topic: BELOW Posted too early, removed, and then realized this is really an "above" picture. Also, should have been posted in September. Guess I was focusing on everyone looking below. I must have been coming up to Covid then and now it's a post Covid brain. Feeble excuses. My cousins John and Heather visiting us in our new house in Rayleigh c.1958 I look terrified and my brother Nicholas has the closed eyes. I cannot figure out what is next to John's head.

Brought forward for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: AMUSEMENT PARKS Showing "The World's Longest Pier" (one mile long) in the background, and the seafront Amusement Park with the ferris wheel and the "Bumper Cars" sign visible. We used to love taking the train to the end of the mile long pier. Some other examples of the Southend amusement park for younger kids, Peter Pan's Playground, below. (1958).

Our cousins first visit to our new house - 23 Woodlands Avenue, Rayleigh. Heather looks SO much like her mum to me (preceding picture.)
