EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The corner shop in Marshall Street Smethwick 1st December 1964" takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of life in the 1960s. The image transports us to a bustling street scene, where terrace houses line the backdrop. It's as if time has stood still, freezing this moment forever. In this snapshot of history, our attention is drawn to a man standing proudly beside his beloved Mini car parked outside the corner shop. His presence exudes an air of confidence and resilience that was characteristic of those times. The man's ethnicity remains undisclosed, reminding us that diversity has always been an integral part of our society. Advertising plays a prominent role in this photograph as well.

As we delve deeper into this image, we are transported not only through space but also through time – experiencing firsthand what it was like to walk these streets over half a century ago.
