Tempus Publishing's sister title to' Nottingham in the 1980s' offers an historic record of life in Radford Nottingham.
'Candid, offbeat and intriguing' 'Nottingham in the 1980s' from Tempus Publishing details the fashions, faces and places of the Thatcher years. In the early 80s, two teenage art students Paul Fillingham and Chris Richards travelled around Nottingham City centre with their cameras, notebooks and diaries, habitually capturing a vibrant slice of everyday life. Twenty years later the pictures serve as a record of a time remembered fondly by some and unknown by those under the age of 20.
The collection of over 200 images documents some of the major changes which took place in Nottingham between 1980 and 1989. Paul and Chris see this as an important era: "The 1980s saw the closure of many established businesses, the coming and going of youth fashions and trends, massive changes in technology, communications and industry, and the transformation of the young authors from students to working adults."
"It offers the opportunity to reflect upon an era which resides in our recent past, and which is yet far enough removed from present-day Nottingham to offer a valuable pictorial history that will doubtless provide much interest."
