EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures Rossall School in 1923, a prestigious fee-paying private school located in Fleetwood, Lancashire. Established in 1844 by St. Vincent Beechey and granted a Royal Charter in 1890, the institution has been synonymous with quality education for nearly a century. The image showcases the impressive architecture of the school's facade against an idyllic outdoor setting typical of England. A group of young boys, dressed impeccably in their school uniforms, can be seen enjoying a break from their studies. It is fascinating to observe how children were allowed to smoke cigarettes during this era, as one boy holds up a cigarette packet while engaging with his peers. The monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia and authenticity to this snapshot from the early 20th century. The black and white tones highlight both the architectural details of the building exterior and the youthful innocence captured within its walls. This photograph was part of Sunripe Cigarettes' series featuring public schools and colleges across Britain. Although it is important to note that commercial use should not be associated with this particular image or any mention thereof. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into British education history at Rossall School during an era when traditions were upheld alongside societal norms that have since evolved significantly.
