EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print captured on June 23,1977, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the Newcastle Hoppings. Amidst the bustling fairground rides and lively crowds, our attention is drawn to one little boy who seems less enthralled by the excitement around him. As he sits atop a roundabout on the Town Moor, his tear-streaked face tells a tale of mixed emotions. Perhaps it was the dizzying motion or unfamiliar sounds that overwhelmed this young adventurer's senses. Or maybe he simply longed for something different amidst an array of thrilling options. Whatever his reasons may be, his hesitance towards the roundabouts stands out in contrast to other children eagerly embracing their joyrides. The scene evokes memories of childhood innocence and vulnerability; a reminder that not all experiences bring immediate delight. However, even in moments like these when tears flow freely, there is beauty in capturing raw emotions frozen in time. This photograph transports us back to an era defined by traction engines and fairground magic - a snapshot from a simpler time where amusement parks were filled with laughter and wonderment. Preserved through Memory Lane Prints by NCJ, this image serves as a window into history and invites us to reflect upon our own childhood adventures at fairs gone by.
