EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to July 1978, where the eccentric and unforgettable pub landlord John Roy proudly showcases his extraordinary facial hair at The Cock Inn in Bearley End, Essex. Standing tall with a mischievous grin on his face, John's extra long moustache steals the spotlight as it stretches an astonishing 6ft 2 inches across and spans over 14 pints wide – truly a record-breaking feat! This peculiar sight undoubtedly captures the essence of the bizarre and unusual trends that characterized the vibrant era of the 1970s. As patrons gather around him in awe, their eyes fixated on this remarkable spectacle, one cannot help but be amazed by John's dedication to nurturing such an impressive display of facial hair. Having started growing it way back in 1939, this iconic moustache has become synonymous with both The Cock Inn and its charismatic owner. It serves as a testament to John's unwavering commitment to his craft as a pub landlord and his ability to create an atmosphere that is both welcoming and memorable for all who visit. As we delve into this nostalgic photograph filled with beer-filled glasses clinking together amidst laughter and camaraderie, we are reminded of how unique individuals like John Roy can leave an indelible mark on our memories. This image stands not only as a celebration of record breakers but also as a tribute to those who dare to embrace their individuality in unconventional ways.
