BilboroughShirley 1,120 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 #18 and #1 Hi Lizzie, I have a book called Nottingham in Old Photographs 1944 to 1974. The picture you are looking for is on page 13. There are also more photos of VE day celebrations in the square. The book is by Douglas Whitworth and the ISBN number is 0-86299-973-1. The library will probably have it. Hope this helps. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LizzieM 9,507 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Margie, it's difficult to be incognito when Catfan and Chulla are about with their camera anyway! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

catfan 14,793 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Bet you can't spot your mum here Lizzie ? http://www.nottinghampost.com/VE-Day-Nottinghamshire-set-relive-celebrations/story-26456699-detail/story.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieM 9,507 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 You're right Catfan, I can't. I'm sure the photo that DOES show my Mum is marked as being 1946. Would that be correct or a printing error by Evening Post publications? Quite probably their mistake, they don't get many facts correct do they?! If it truly was taken in 1946 then maybe there was a celebration of 1st Anniversary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
