EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant Piccadilly area of Manchester on a Friday night, precisely on the 3rd of May in 1935. The image beautifully captures the essence of this bustling cityscape during the golden era of the 1930s. Illuminating the scene is none other than the iconic Piccadilly Cinema, its neon lights casting a mesmerizing glow upon all who pass by. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, our eyes are drawn to another prominent feature: Piccadilly Square. On this clear May evening, it serves as a gathering place for pedestrians seeking entertainment and leisure. Amongst them stands an eye-catching sign advertising Wincarnis, a beloved British tonic wine that found popularity not only in its home country but also in Jamaica and other former British colonies. Transported back to that fateful Friday night, one can almost feel the excitement and anticipation hanging in the air. The picture house buzzes with activity as moviegoers eagerly await their chosen cinematic experience while others wander through streets adorned with neon lights that paint a vivid tapestry against Manchester's darkened sky. Preserved through time by Mirrorpix's Memory Lane Prints collection, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an enchanting moment frozen forever within its frame—a testament to both nostalgia and progress as we reflect upon how much has changed since those lively nights in 1935.
