EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant 1950s in Sale, near Manchester. Norma Watson, the dedicated manageress of a local grocery shop, is caught in action as she meticulously repaints the egg sign on her shop window. With a determined expression on her face and a paintbrush in hand, Norma adds a touch of freshness to her store's advertising display. The significance lies not only in Norma's commitment to maintaining an attractive storefront but also in the intriguing offer provided by the chain grocery firm she represents. As stated proudly on the sign, customers can now enjoy thirteen eggs per dozen instead of twelve – an enticing deal that surely attracted many curious shoppers passing by. This image beautifully captures both nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for hardworking individuals like Norma who played vital roles within their communities. The photograph showcases not only her dedication but also highlights women's growing presence as successful shopkeepers during this era. Preserved through time by Stubbs' lens, this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints serves as a reminder of how small moments can hold great historical value. It invites us to reflect upon our own memories and experiences while appreciating those who have contributed to shaping our past.
