EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the rainy month of October in 1981. The image captures a significant moment during the Croydon by-election, where political heavyweight Roy Jenkins is seen alongside an Alliance candidate. Roy Jenkins, a prominent member of parliament and respected politician of his time, exudes confidence as he braves the downpour with his companion. Despite the gloomy weather, their determination shines through as they campaign for their cause. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the essence of politics in the 1980s - a period marked by intense debates and shifting alliances. It serves as a reminder that even amidst adverse conditions, politicians remain steadfast in their pursuit of progress and change. As raindrops cascade around them, both figures hold onto umbrellas tightly; symbols not only protecting them from nature's elements but also representing resilience against political challenges. Their expressions reveal unwavering dedication to serving their constituents and upholding democratic values. Reg Lancaster's skilled lensmanship perfectly captures this historic moment with impeccable detail and composition. This print becomes more than just an artifact; it becomes a window into an era defined by passionate individuals striving to make a difference. Whether you're fascinated by politics or simply appreciate powerful imagery frozen in time, this remarkable piece will undoubtedly spark curiosity about our past leaders' journeys towards shaping society for generations to come.
