We have been looking back though our online archive and here are ten pictures for you to enjoy that were captured by Watford Observer photographers during the 1970s.

They feature a mixture of famous faces and pictures of community events in which you may recognise someone.

A football club team photo also features in the images below, as does dozens of school children racing across a field.

These images were last published around five years ago and we hope readers will enjoy seeing them for the first time or looking through them again.
