It's not often that a city centre is the stage for a #1940's (and multi period) event! But on the 29th and 30th august 2015 Gloucester was transformed into a retro and vintage themed event.
Westgate Street was the scene for the #HomeFront #re-enactors and also for #WWII soldiers with the Gloster 2nd Battalion providing a street display.
With a vintage market and dancing display at Kings Square, vintage vehicles lining the streets, and costumed re-enactors from the 1900's through to the 1980's, this was an interesting and enjoyable city event!
The 1940s Picture Post brings you news and views about 1940s events and re-enactments, your WWII stories, Bletchley Park and the radio spies, or voluntary interceptors, listening stations, vintage fashion, films, tv, dvd, in fact everything and anything about the 1940's!
