EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to December 1969, where the spirit of charity and endurance is beautifully captured. Runner Ken Shaw, a determined athlete hailing from Peckham, London, can be seen competing in the Save the Children's Charity Marathon at Liverpool Wanenture playground. With sheer determination etched on his face, Ken Shaw pushes himself to the limit as he tackles the long-distance race. The marathon serves as a testament to his unwavering commitment towards supporting charitable causes during this era of compassion and unity. As he crosses the finish line after an arduous journey through miles of challenging terrain, St. John's ambulance men swiftly come to his aid. They gently place a warm blanket around Ken Shaw's shoulders, providing much-needed comfort and relief after such an incredible feat.
