EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print titled "Old World Courtesy from the City Gents" we are transported back to October 1962 in Manchester. The image captures three jovial dustmen, who have become the latest recruits to what can only be described as the "Bowler Hat Brigade". These cheerful men stumbled upon a collection of bowler hats outside an office on New Market Street and decided to adopt them as their own unique work attire. With a touch of humor and a dash of old-world charm, they proudly wear these unconventional headpieces while carrying out their daily duties. The photograph not only showcases the men's sense of camaraderie but also highlights their commitment to bringing a touch of elegance and unexpected delight to an otherwise mundane task. As they go about collecting litter from the streets, these dustmen turn heads with their unusual choice of headwear. This snapshot from the 1960s is a testament to how even in seemingly ordinary occupations, individuals can inject creativity and joy into their everyday lives. It serves as a reminder that sometimes it takes just one small act or accessory – like wearing bowler hats – to brighten up our surroundings and bring smiles to those around us. With its timeless appeal, this print by Mirrorpix captures not only an era but also celebrates the power of individuality, humor, and old-world courtesy amidst modern times.
