EDITORS COMMENTS
An everyday sight in Newcastle, as the barrow boys ply their trade on 3rd August 1973. In this print by NCJ from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to a bustling street scene filled with the energy of small business owners and eager customers. The image captures a large group of people, representing a mixed age range and various occupations, gathered around the barrows. At the center of attention is Thomas Quinn, known to many shoppers as one of the regulars. With his friendly smile and expert knowledge, he skillfully weighs fruits on scales before placing them into paper bags for his satisfied customers. The aroma of fresh produce fills the air as conversations flow between buyers and sellers. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into UK social history during the 1970s when street traders like these barrow boys were an integral part of daily life in Newcastle. They brought convenience to local communities while creating vibrant hubs where people could connect over their shared love for quality goods. As we admire this photograph print, let's appreciate not only its visual appeal but also its ability to transport us back in time - reminding us that behind every image lies stories waiting to be discovered.
