The Best Summer of Our Lives: A Photographic History of the Derbyshire Miners' Holiday CampThe story of the Derbyshire Miners Holiday Camp at Skegness is the story of the thousands of mining families who holidayed there after the Second World War. There are also stories of the people who worked at the camp, many of them from mining families and some former miners themselves. It is also the story of the union men who fought in the 1920s and 1930s for a miners right to take an annual holiday with pay and who made the building of the camp

The story of the Derbyshire Miners’ Holiday Camp at Skegness is the story of the thousands of mining families who holidayed there after the Second World War.

There are also stories of the people who worked at the camp, many of them from mining families and some former miners themselves.

It is also the story of the union men who fought in the 1920s and 1930s for a miner’s right to take an annual holiday with pay and who made the building of the camp possible.

It is very much the people’s story, woven to get her using reminiscences and photographs, and the result is a fascinating look at the variety of life at the camp and the old mining community in Derbyshire itself.

‘In the 1940’s and 50’s, it was the only way you could get a holiday. Most of all, I remember going to the camp in the summer of 1947. It was just after the war, I was 14 – and it was the best summer of my life’

Perfect sublimation paper!

The print quality is really good. I’ve had no issues so far. When sublimating, the colors are very vibrant! The paper is very great quality. Definitely worth every penny.

Excellent Quality
Size: 11"x17", Size: 11"x17"
This paper is the only paper I have ever tried with my sublimation printer. I get the most vibrant colors with every transfer. I have not experienced any fading even after washing multiple times. I have purchased this paper in letter size, 11x17, as well as 13x19 for use on welcome doormats. I have not been disappointed with any. The paper feeds through my printer without issue whether I load a single sheet, or multiples. So far, I've used it to sublimate on dishtowels, garden flags, welcome mats, t shirts, sweatshirts, and mugs. I am always happy with the finished product. I highly recommend this sublimation paper, and it can usually be found at a great price. I advise you to stock up when you see a sale

Best sub paper!
Size: 8.5"x11"
This is actually my second box of this paper I purchased. I use it that much! I like it that much! It works easily through my Epson 2850. The sub ink transfers to this paper with vibrant colors before pressing. I like the ASub print on the back to help me load the paper correctly in my printer. The ink does not bleed through the paper. I like that this paper comes in a plastic bag and in a box. This is helpful to keep the moisture out of the paper. The paper is durable as I try to manipulate on my substrate.
