UNSEEN AND UNPUBLISHED - WHITECHAPEL IN 1961

This is one of a number of fantastic previously unseen gems unearthed by individuals who have willingly instructed that I should share them seen as they were meant to be seen without unsightly scrawl.

This one from Tony Roach shows the Whitechapel/Richmond Street junction in 1961 noting in particular the Austin Healey Sprite Mk 1 affectionately known as The Frogeye on the left.

The view today shows a pedestrianised area with St Johns Beacon now towering above the Playhouse Theatre.

Please use the scroll bar below the photos.

By 'unsightly scrawl' I take it you mean Ged copyright marking.?

Would you agree that is down to the Individual..?


people who allow me to show their photographs on my websiste insist I put 'unsightly scrawl' on them..
it keeps them safe, if I see them elsewhere I can have them removed...

Thats something I've never had to do as they dont get pinched from my website...
and thats down to that 'unsightly scrawl' you mention
I wonder what Joe Devine would think knowing virtually every one of his photos is on the web on different websites..
also on Youtube videos... and they were all lifted from your website...I think Jobo would go beserk..
No, strike that...I lived next door to the man for years... I know...not think..he would hit the roof...

I wonder what the chap who allowed you to show that photo above will think
when the same happens with his photo..

because it will.... sooner or later
I've just lifted it and can do what I want with it...
rest assured Mr Roach.. I have no intention of mis-using your photo..
but not everybody is like me....



it would take years going through a court to prove who owned it....
That wont happen with anybodys photos on my website...

Thanks to that 'unsightly scrawl'

Cheers..


Gerard.

Oops have I touched a nerve of Mr Paranoia who gets on with everyone EVER? We wouldn't want to shatter that self imposed illusion would we.

Joe Devine gave me carte blanch to put his photos on my site knowing they wouldn't be copyright watermarked, that is a closed book. Are you sure you lived next door to him or was it the same street, like I did for years too?

Mr Roach is happy to share his photos which is why i've shown it as that's what it was meant for like i've said. I know you'll have lifted it so does that make you any better than anyone else who does?

Those that want their photos copyright marked before they send them to me can do so and I will show them with their copyright mark, the fact they are then on my site means they've given me permission or they wouldn't be on it - there's no need for me to further spoil it.

Now, if you don't mind, you're spoiling my post, I don't do that to yours.

Note Ged I never get personal or insulting on here to you..?
did'nt I ask you to stop this a while back..?


I'm pointing out facts to you...FACTS.
sorry lad you cant handle it...
but cut out the childish insults fella.. they dont work on me lad.

You have just accused me of putting somebody's photos up in a manner which would not have been to his liking when the man is no longer here and it was to his liking as instructed. He did not want me putting any watermark on them and told me so. What are we keeping them safe from - that fella in Spain making 10p a card and seeling probably 20 of them if that. Mr Roach has the negatives, problem solved now let's please move on.

ps, you are admin of a site which allows this lifting and publishing are you not?

I did not accuse you of anything...

You mentioned 'unsightly scrawl' in your top post on this thread..

Who's that directed at Ged...?
I know, you know...so dont fu** about with sly denials..

And we both know why you said that 'unsightly scrawl' comment, dont we ?..

We'll get over there and get it off your chest lad..
I wont deny who that comment was aimed at about jealous evertonians.

Get on there...spit it out.

Get on where ha ha - spit what out. It's Sunday, have you been drinking again?. I'm not jealous of anyone lol. Do you mean the banter we have on here???

So have you been laying some bait that I haven't taken - sorry to disappoint you but i've been busy finding yet more old photos for people who have requested them for various reasons such as family tree sites or their ailing nana etc.

I think that Feather Street chap is still waiting for you to make his lucky day ha ha.

Unsightly scrawl or not, you both post great Photo's, where would we be without them, so calm down, calm down !!:)

Great pic this...............................and not a Primark bag in sight! :)

Cundles, spend some money in there over the years:)
It's a pity that stationery shop next door has ceased trading, always got some good nick nacks out of there.
