EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Terry Fincher, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Stevenage Town Centre in Hertfordshire during the 1950s. A group of young lads, exuding an air of confidence and rebellion, gather around a majestic fountain that stands as the centerpiece of the town square. It is October 13th, 1959, and these teenagers proudly display their affiliation with the Teddy Boys subculture through their distinctive fashion choices. The image encapsulates the spirit of youth and camaraderie that defined this era. These boys represent a generation on the cusp of change - living in a newly developed town known for its modernity and progressiveness. As they congregate around the fountain, one can almost hear their laughter echoing through time. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how important public spaces were for fostering social connections among young people during this period. The energy radiating from these youths hints at dreams yet to be realized and adventures waiting to unfold. Terry Fincher's lens beautifully captures not just a moment frozen in time but also an entire zeitgeist - where innocence meets rebellion against societal norms. This evocative snapshot invites us to reflect on our own youthful memories while honoring those who paved the way for future generations in Stevenage Town Centre.
