Tynemouth PS record group leader Stan Bewick AFIAP has been delving into the society’s archive to produce a new book of photos. The TPS collection has been built up over many years and consists of over 2000 photographs, slides, negatives, and glass plates, going back to the 1860s. Bewick has amassed an intimate knowledge of the collection as he has digitised everything and produced comprehensive notes on each. The book contains 199 images of North Shields, Tynemouth and Cullercoats, most of which have never been published. The first edition has been a huge success with local bookshops and a second print run is already being planned. A copy of the book can be bought directly from the Tynemouth PS’s syllabus secretary, via the contact link on the club’s website. It costs £12, plus £3.50 postage. tynemouthps.org/contact.html Historic book selling fast
