EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print captured by Alfred Markey, we are transported back to the 1960s in Hull, East Yorkshire. The image showcases the friendly and caring nature of the local police force as they assist twins Margaret and Heather Kelly, who were just three years old at the time. The photograph depicts a significant moment on March 16th, 1965 when these adorable little girls confidently hold hands with two uniformed policemen while crossing a zebra crossing outside Midland Bank. The genuine smiles on their faces reflect both trust and gratitude towards these dedicated officers. This snapshot encapsulates a sense of community spirit and safety that was prevalent during that era. It reminds us of simpler times when children could roam freely without constant worry or fear. The presence of the police not only ensured road safety but also fostered a strong bond between law enforcement and citizens. Alfred Markey's skillful composition captures every detail - from the vintage clothing worn by Margaret and Heather to the iconic architecture surrounding them. This timeless image serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era long gone but never forgotten. As we admire this beautiful piece from Memory Lane Prints, it is impossible not to be moved by its innocence, charm, and enduring message: that even in bustling cities like Hull, acts of kindness can be found around every corner.
