EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The familiar figure of Frank Hewson, on 3rd August 1973" we are transported back to the bustling streets of Newcastle in the 1970s. The image captures a slice of everyday life as we see Frank Hewson, a well-known barrow boy who has spent his entire life selling fruits in this vibrant city. Frank stands proudly behind his wooden barrow filled with crates and boxes overflowing with apples and pears. His weathered face tells tales of countless hours spent under the sun, serving customers with dedication and passion. Surrounding him is a small group of people, perhaps regular customers or curious passersby intrigued by the sight. This photograph not only showcases an individual's occupation but also offers us a glimpse into the rich social history of street traders in the UK during that era. It reminds us of a time when small businesses thrived on personal connections and community engagement. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate individuals like Frank Hewson who played an integral role in shaping their local communities through their hard work and entrepreneurial spirit. This print from Memory Lane Prints serves as a poignant reminder that even seemingly ordinary moments can hold immense historical significance.
