Then & Now

How much has our county changed over the years?
Most people would agree that it has changed considerably.

Well, we at HCM Collectors would disagree. Yes we may have more cars on the road and some views may be obscured by more trees etc., but basically it's not changed that much.

By re-visiting and re-photographing places from the early magazines we will attempt to prove our point.  We have listed below, by magazine number some front covers and inside photographs that we have re-visited.

To view these comparisons please click on the thumbnails below and then your back button to return.

Do you have any photographs similar to the ones in the magazine?
Do you have any old photographs of Hertfordshire you would like to share with others?
Please send them to us by email and we'll include them.
