EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant city of Manchester in August 1963. Standing tall and exuding an air of grandeur is Hill House, the iconic headquarters of William Hill, the world's largest bookmakers at that time. This architectural masterpiece commands attention with its striking design and imposing presence. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing both the timeless elegance of 1960s architecture and the bustling energy surrounding this hub of gambling activity. As we gaze upon this historical gem, it becomes evident that Hill House was not just a building; it represented an entire industry built on risk-taking and excitement. Sheppard's expert lens skillfully frames every intricate detail - from the meticulously crafted facade to the rows of windows hinting at countless stories unfolding within those walls. The image evokes a sense of curiosity about what transpired behind those doors during that era when betting was still largely done offline. This remarkable snapshot serves as a reminder that buildings hold memories too; they become witnesses to human endeavors and aspirations. It transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate Manchester's rich history while contemplating how much has changed since then. As we admire Sheppard's artistry in capturing this momentous scene, let us reflect on how far society has come in terms of gambling practices while cherishing these remnants from our past as valuable pieces in our collective memory lane.
