Sepia Saturday 822 - Saturday 18th April 2026

 

Our theme image this week features an early twentieth century motor vehicle (the body of which, coincidentally, was built by my father's Uncle Albert). Leaving aside the family pride, you might want to use the image to prompt reflections on vehicles past and present, or, noting that the wagon was used to transport beer, you might want to take a diversion into the realm of beer bottles. And, as always, you can take a completely unchartered diversion to wherever you want - all we ask for is an old image and some new thoughts. Deliver them on or around Saturday 18th April 2026 and leave a link on the list below. 

Before asking you to turn your eyes to what will come next on Sepia Saturday, can I take a moment to thank my good friend and loyal Sepian, Barbara Rogers, for reminding me to put the weekly call up on the all too many occasions where I forget. Thanks to her and to all of you for continuing to support Sepia Saturday.

Sepia Saturday 821 : 11th April 2026

 

We've always been proud of our houses. Once affordable cameras became available to the general public, we have highlighted that pride by having our photographs taken outside our houses. It doesn't matter whether we are talking about mansions or cottages, caravans or terraces: we want our photographs taking whilst we are lined up alongside them. This week on Sepia Saturday we are celebrating houses and you are invited to share your old photographs by posting them on or around Saturday 11th April and leaving a link on the list below. 

Sepia Saturday 820 (4th April 2026)

 

My Sepia Saturday theme image this week is a bit of a mystery. It is from my own collection and is simply captioned "B&C Male Voice Choir 1918". I have no idea what the "B" and the "C" stand for, but I am intrigued by the fact that so many able bodied men, not in uniform, have been able to gather together, given the date is 1918. The mystery of the male voice choir may never be solved but that doesn't matter - the picture provides us with a chorus of potential themes for your old photographs this week. There are choirs, there are groups, and there are mysteries. If none of those suit you, you can always choose the year - 1918. Whatever your choice, just post your post on or around Saturday 4th April 2026 and add a link to the list below. And then take a look at what is still to come here on Sepia Saturday.
