VINTAGE VEHICLES, RE-ENACTORS AND THE UK VINTAGE EVENTS!

There's always an opportunity to get some great photos at the vintage events!  Often, the re-enactors bring their own vehicles, or have pictures taken beside them, to set the scene and transport us back in time.

Whether it's a journey back to the Home Front and 1940's Britain, (pictures of re-enactors, above and below, at Black Country Museum 1940s event 2015)

 or the dazzling and daring 1930's, (pictured below 1930s re-enactor at Hartlebury Castle Fashion Through The Ages event)

it's not just a photo opportunity, it's also the chance to get together and have a great day! And of course the 1940s events also keep our history alive and help us to remember the sacrifices made during WWII.

#HARTLEBURY CASTLE and FASHION THROUGH THE AGES 2015

Fashion Through The Ages at Hartlebury Castle brought it's visitors a day of classic cars and #vintage nostalgia. 

 

The history of this mid thirteenth century castle was also revisited as Queen Charlotte was present (pictured below) in the saloon, with a WWII re-enactor.

 

 

Hartlebury Castle's journey through time also included a glitzy and glamorous display of #1930'sFashion.

 

 

A great event with historical costumes, time themed re-enactors and plenty of vintage shopping!







THE VICTORIAN RE-ENACTOR IN WALSALL!

The Victorian Era is always an interesting and popular subject for the re-enactors!
Spotted (below) on a gloomy weekday in August,  in Walsall in the West Midlands,

 a Victorian actor with top hat, long jacket, waxed moustache on a penny farthing bicycle!

 



This wasn't an event and there wasn't any advertising, so I'm guessing this was just a re-enactor deciding to entertain us all.... and then he disappeared into the Victorian Arcade... where else!
