EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a nostalgic moment frozen in time. This print by Ian Kelso takes us back to the vibrant era of the 1960s, where bustling shoppers filled the streets with excitement. The image showcases a modern marvel of architecture – an escalator leading up to the upper deck of this iconic shopping destination in Bootle, Merseyside. The sleek design and clean lines of this innovative structure reflect the forward-thinking spirit of that era. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we notice prams lined up on one side, indicating that families were also partaking in this retail adventure. A red telephone box stands proudly nearby, serving as a reminder of simpler times when communication relied on these charming booths. Stars adorn shop windows, hinting at glamorous offerings within. Shoppers can be seen going about their day, carrying bags filled with purchases and perhaps seeking out bargains or indulging in some retail therapy. Ian Kelso's photograph transports us back to an era where shopping was not just about acquiring goods but also about experiencing community life and enjoying architectural wonders like this magnificent escalator. It serves as a testament to how our surroundings shape our memories and evoke emotions tied to specific moments in time. This print is a beautiful tribute to both nostalgia enthusiasts and those curious about how everyday life has evolved over decades past.
