EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print from 1972, we are transported back to a moment of pure entertainment and joy. The iconic comedy duo, Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise, stand side by side with the stunning Miss Great Britain Carolyn Moore as they open the new Burtons Superstore in Leeds on Thursday, February 3rd. The image captures the essence of the 1970s era, where beauty queens mingled effortlessly with beloved comedians. With their trademark wit and charm, Morecambe and Wise undoubtedly brought laughter to all those present at this opening ceremony. Adding an unexpected twist to the occasion is customer Doris Hardwick, a sprightly 62-year-old who found herself swept up in an impromptu routine alongside these comedic legends. The photograph freezes this delightful moment for eternity - a testament to the power of humor to bring people together across generations. As we gaze upon this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints by Varley, we can't help but be reminded of how shops and shopping have always been more than just commercial transactions; they serve as gathering places for communities to come alive with shared experiences. And on that day in Leeds in 1972, it was certainly no exception as Morecambe and Wise lit up not only the store but also our hearts with their timeless comedy genius.
