It's a journey back in time to wartime Britain and what makes it really interesting is that it's all staged within the picturesque setting of a Victorian village!
Set in 26 acres the Black Country Living Museum celebrates the region's proud industrial heritage and once a year presents the highly popular 1940s Weekend.
There's was so much to see with Homefront displays and 1940s costumed re-enactors everywhere,
and military re-enactments and exhibitions, and vintage vehicles lining the streets.
This was a really great two day event! Very enjoyable!
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!
