EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the gritty world of coal mining in the 1980s. Pitmen Gerald Hargraves and John Smith are captured here, deep underground at Wrytree Colliery, as they tirelessly mine the hard way. The image showcases their unwavering dedication and resilience in an industry known for its demanding nature. The stark contrast between light and shadow highlights the harsh conditions these men faced daily. Covered in soot, their faces reveal years of laborious work etched into every line. Armed with a trusty pickaxe, they navigate through narrow tunnels, chipping away at layers of coal that fuelled entire communities. This photograph is a poignant reminder of an era when coal was king and collieries like Wrytree were bustling hubs of activity. It serves as a tribute to the countless miners who risked their lives to power nations during this time. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from Memory Lane Prints' collection by NCJ, we are transported back to November 1980 - a moment frozen in time where two ordinary men embody extraordinary strength and determination. Their story resonates with generations past and present, reminding us of the sacrifices made by those who worked tirelessly beneath our feet to keep society moving forward.
