EDITORS COMMENTS

In this print from 1969, we witness the mischievous adventure of a hamster named Horace. The unsuspecting victim of his escapade is John Daly's minicab, which he diligently chews through with determination. After an astonishing forty minutes of relentless nibbling, the furry culprit is finally apprehended by fitter Bert Watson. The scene unfolds as Bert skillfully dismantles the dashboard facia to access the hiding spot where Horace had sought refuge. This daring rescue mission was set in motion when Lady Beaumont's daughter, Daniele, purchased the hamster just before embarking on her journey in John Daly's taxi. This snapshot captures not only a peculiar incident but also serves as a reminder of life's unexpected surprises during the vibrant era of the 1960s. Amidst all its chaos and excitement, even something as small as a rodent can create quite a stir. Alisdair MacDonald masterfully immortalizes this moment in time through his lens, allowing us to marvel at both human ingenuity and animal curiosity. As we gaze upon this image today, it transports us back to an era filled with quirky anecdotes and everyday adventures that continue to captivate our imagination.
