EDITORS COMMENTS
Cedric Crossfields, the 15-year-old boy from Manchester who dared to chase his dreams, is captured in this remarkable photo print. In a bold move that defied societal norms of the time, Cedric ran away from home with one purpose: to become a lion tamer. His determination and passion led him straight into the arms of opportunity at Billy Smarts Circus in Carbrook, Sheffield. On this historic day - March 6th, 1954 - Cedric stepped into the cage for the very first time. Nervous yet resolute, he was introduced to his majestic companions by none other than renowned lion tamer Charles Illenebe. The image freezes a moment filled with anticipation and courage as Cedric faces these powerful creatures head-on. This photograph encapsulates not only an extraordinary individual's pursuit of their dreams but also represents an era when entertainment took on daring forms within circuses. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate desire to conquer challenges that lie before us. Higgins' Memory Lane Prints have expertly preserved this slice of history from the 1950s. As we gaze upon young Cedric's journey towards becoming a lion tamer against all odds, it reminds us that age should never limit our aspirations nor deter us from embracing life's wild adventures.
