EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by David McEmery, we are transported back to the 1960s in Sussex, England. The image showcases a group of Ton-Up Boys, members of a rebellious youth subculture known for their love of motorcycles and speed. However, on this particular day in March 1964, these motorcyclists have put aside their wild antics to join the great mercy search for young Derek Parsloe. Derek Parsloe, a twelve-year-old boy from Brighton, had gone missing from his home. What makes this search even more urgent is that Derek requires daily drug doses to prevent him from falling into a coma. In an extraordinary display of community spirit and compassion, these volunteer Emergency Service riders have come together to assist in finding Derek. Normally responsible for delivering urgently needed drugs to hospitals on their powerful bikes, these bikers now navigate the roads with determination and purpose as they scour every corner of Sussex in search of the missing child. Their dedication highlights not only their commitment to helping others but also sheds light on the unique bond shared within this subculture. This poignant print serves as a reminder that beneath the tough exterior often associated with biker culture lies individuals who are willing to put everything aside when someone is in need. It captures both the essence of youth rebellion during that era and showcases how communities can unite for a common cause - bringing hope amidst uncertainty.
