In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of a Byker pub in 1961. The legendary Anthony Aloysius Hancock, renowned actor and comedian of the 1960s, is captured in a moment of playful mischief. As he engages in a spirited game of dominoes with his fellow patrons, there's an undeniable twinkle in his eye. Despite his fame and success, it becomes evident that Hancock was not above indulging in some harmless curiosity. With a mischievous grin on his face, he takes the occasional squint at the next player's hand - perhaps hoping for an advantage or simply reveling in the joyous camaraderie that such games bring. During this time, Hancock was also performing at Sunderland, showcasing his comedic genius to adoring audiences. This image serves as a delightful reminder that even amidst professional commitments and public acclaim, he found solace and enjoyment within these humble social settings. The photograph captures not only Hancock's infectious sense of humor but also highlights the timeless appeal of traditional pastimes like dominoes. It reminds us that laughter knows no boundaries or limitations - transcending societal roles and bringing people together through shared moments of levity. This remarkable snapshot from Memory Lane Prints allows us to glimpse into both the personal life and public persona of one Britain's most beloved entertainers – Anthony Aloysius Hancock.
