Umbrella Seller

Umbrella Seller' Catalogue No.16
Taken in Strickland's Yard, The Cragg, Whitby. The old lady to the right of the umbrella seller is Mrs Esther Winspear who lost both of her brothers and father in the 1861 lifeboat disaster. The man in the doorway was John Hill, said to have been born about 1790. He was a bathing machine proprietor. One of Sutcliffe's earlier photographs, it was taken before he had fully acquired the ability to completely relax his subjects and it has about it a somewhat theatrical quality.

Available in small (114 x 152mm)

Jacks

'Jacks' Catalogue No.18
The group is outside David Storry's grocery shop at the foot of the 199 steps leading up to St. Mary's Parish Church, Whitby. Children playing what is known locally as 'jacks', a game played with a round stone or ball and five small stones. The ball was thrown in the air and the object of the game was to pick up the stones in succession before the ball hit the ground.

Available in medium (210 x 276mm).

Sea Urchins

'Sea Urchins' Catalogue No. 20
A group of boys on the beach at Staithes, a fishing village along the coast to the north west of Whitby. The rock may still be seen today, virtually unchanged from the 1880s when this photograph was taken.
