EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The quaint old world. 'Toast Rack' horse trams are carrying thousands daily" takes us back to the charming era of September 1928 in Douglas, Isle of Man. The image showcases a bustling scene along the fine promenade, where holidaymakers and locals alike gather to enjoy the idyllic seafront. In this snapshot from the 1920s, we witness the timeless appeal of horse-drawn trams known as "Toast Racks" which were an integral part of daily life on the island. These trams served as a popular mode of transport, ferrying thousands of people along the picturesque promenade every day. The atmosphere captured in this photograph exudes nostalgia and transports us to a simpler time when leisurely strolls by the sea were cherished moments during holidays. As we gaze at this historic image, we can almost hear the clip-clop sound of hooves on cobblestones and feel a gentle breeze coming off the sparkling waters. This Memory Lane Print allows us to appreciate not only how transportation has evolved over time but also how certain traditions endure through generations. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and modernization, there is beauty in preserving elements from our past that hold sentimental value. Whether you have personal connections to Douglas or simply appreciate historical photography, this evocative print offers a glimpse into an enchanting chapter in Isle of Man's history – one filled with charm, tranquility, and memories waiting to be discovered.
