EDITORS COMMENTS
The Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, is captured in this rare and captivating photograph from February 1957. Seated alongside him in a traditional canoe at Gambia, West Africa is Lt. Commander Michael Parker, who had recently resigned as the Duke's trusted Private Secretary. The image showcases an intimate moment between these two remarkable individuals amidst the serene waters of Gambia. The Duke's distinguished presence is evident as he sits comfortably with his characteristic beard framing his face. Lt. Commander Michael Parker exudes a sense of camaraderie and loyalty towards the Duke. This snapshot offers a glimpse into their shared experiences during their time together in West Africa—a period that undoubtedly shaped both men personally and professionally. Taken by an unknown photographer for the West African Newspaper, this print serves as a poignant reminder of historical significance from the 1950s—a decade marked by significant global events. As we reflect upon this intriguing piece of history through Memory Lane Prints' lens, it allows us to appreciate not only the individual journeys undertaken by these notable figures but also their collective impact on society during that era.
