They all show Ryhope Allstars and they come to us from Susan Metcalf who is the band secretary.
And while these photos may be nostalgic, the band is very much still on the scene.
Susan told us: “Ryhope Allstars are still going and the only band left in the Sunderland area. We should be celebrating 61 years this year. We have moved this to next year.”
We’ll have more on the bands celebrations in the months to come. In the meantime, take a look at these Allstars photos through the decades.
