EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a nostalgic moment in time as a classic Morris Minor gracefully emerges from the Graham & Roberts Garage, located on Botchergate in Carlisle, Cumbria. The image showcases the enduring charm of this iconic British car and offers a glimpse into the bustling world of automotive repair and maintenance during that era. The Breaking New Ground Project, undertaken in collaboration with the esteemed John Laing Charitable Trust in 2019-20, catalogued this remarkable photograph as part of its mission to preserve and celebrate our rich cultural heritage. Through their efforts, we are able to appreciate not only the aesthetic beauty of this snapshot but also gain insight into the historical significance it holds. As we gaze at this scene frozen in time, we can almost hear the hum of engines and smell faint traces of motor oil lingering in the air. It serves as a reminder of how integral garages like Graham & Roberts were to communities across Britain – places where cars were nurtured back to health or prepared for new adventures on open roads. Transport enthusiasts will undoubtedly find joy in examining every detail captured within this frame – from the vintage signage adorning the garage walls to glimpses of other vehicles patiently awaiting their turn for service. This evocative image is an ode to both our love affair with automobiles and our commitment to preserving history for future generations.
