The AHA Moment

This picture was a mystery. It's obviously a Post Office but which Post Office? The answer came unexpectedly one day while waiting for the traffic light to change in Shakespeare. Looking at the buildings on the northwest corner it was suddenly very obvious. One of them was the Post Office in our picture. The Shakespeare building has changed over the years. It's no longer a Post Office. A second story was added on. And, of course, the bunting and decoration recognizing Queen Victoria's death in 1901 is long gone. Overall, it's still recognizable.

Looking through the Lemp Studio Collection photos might produce an "aha moment" for you. Give it a go. It's easiest to work in the Grid option (top right corner in the Lemp Studio Collection section). If you click once on a photo you will bring it up on a separate page. Click on the photo again to enlarge it. You might be surprised at what you see and what you know. If you can identify a person or place or any photo otherwise unnamed, please tell us so we can add that identification to our records.
