This print titled "Dockers at North Shields suspended their strike at 8 a. m" takes us back to the bustling docks of July 1970. In this snapshot, we witness a pivotal moment in the lives of hardworking dockers as they temporarily set aside their grievances to tackle an enormous task. The image showcases a group of dedicated men, donned in their rugged work attire, standing alongside the colossal Ranger Ajax freezer trawler. The sheer size of the vessel is awe-inspiring, hinting at the magnitude of its cargo - an abundance of fish awaiting unloading. Despite ongoing labor disputes that had brought operations to a halt, these resilient dockers made a collective decision to suspend their strike and resume work promptly at 8 a. m. Their commitment to duty shines through as they prepare themselves for what promises to be an arduous endeavor ahead.
