Yes, your eyes are correct. This is Jennifer Parkin of Ripley in the 1970s and those are her feet around her head! We don’t know much about Jennifer except she performed as a dancer and contortionist, but it must have been quite the show!

A little festive #EYASparkle. These beautiful illustrations of the odd bobtail squid, Heteroteuthis dispar, can be found in the reports from the expeditions of Albert I Monaco. This volume, 66, was published in 1923

Our archive may be small, but it’s mighty - housing over 6,000 items that trace the evolution of psychiatric care through Bethlem Royal Hospital, the Maudsley & Warlingham Park. Whether you're a researcher, student, or curious visitor, there's a story here waiting to be uncovered.

The Treasury houses the College chest, which contained money and important documents (the beginnings of the Archives). Over time they outgrew the chest and eventually moved to the Muniment Room below - now the Library and Archives office! #EYAYourArchives #ExploreYourArchive

The Llanwenarth #WomensInstitute Minute Books from @gwentarchives.bsky.social were very popular with our transcribers. This lovely entry from December 1921 reports on a very “successful” carol concert and children’s tea party with entertainment and gifts of oranges and sweets! #EYAYourArchives 🍊🍭🍊🍭

This image explores the theme of #EYAYourArchives as it highlights York history as well as the wider history of Britian. It explores the celebrations for Queen Victorias Diamond Jubilee and the coming together of the community, through either teas or galas.
