Remember your childhood days at the funfair with this Afternoon of Memories fine art photo print.

The 8×10 inch print is on heavy duty Kodak Endura archival quality paper and each print is full bleed but can be printed with a small white border on request. The photo encapsulates the classic British summertime by the beach before families started to jet off abroad and the blanched affect of the image gives it a retro feel as if it's been fading away on the wall for the last thirty years.

Order your own from Etsy for $30 (£18.82) and £3.45 for postage.
