EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Coventry in the 1930s. Standing tall and proud is "Tobys Head" public house, a beloved establishment that has witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls. The pub's charming architecture exudes a sense of history and tradition, with its sturdy brick facade and inviting entrance. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to the narrow cobbled street leading up to the pub. These cobblestones have seen generations of footsteps, echoing with laughter and conversations from patrons who sought solace or celebration within "Tobys Head". To the right of the image stands Frank Mason & Co. , an auctioneer's business that unfortunately fell victim to bombing during World War II. This poignant reminder serves as a testament to the resilience of Coventry's community during those turbulent times. The atmosphere captured in this photograph transports us back to an era before war ravaged these streets, offering a glimpse into everyday life before conflict altered their landscape forever. It invites us to reflect on how much has changed while cherishing memories long gone. Memory Lane Prints allows us access into these moments frozen in time, reminding us of our shared heritage and sparking nostalgia for bygone days when pubs like "Tobys Head" were pillars of community life.
