EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Thomas, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Southport, Lancashire in the 1960s. The image showcases Mr Leslie Johnson, a local nightclub owner and an avid horse rider, as he confidently rides his beloved horse "Lady" into the iconic Fox and Goose bar. The photograph tells a remarkable story of triumph and generosity. It was on this day, September 28th, 1965, that Mr Johnson had won a bet and arrived at the pub to collect his well-deserved reward - a £10 cheque made out to Sunshine Homes for the Blind charity. As he gracefully guides Lady through the entrance of the establishment, one can only imagine the astonishment and admiration from fellow patrons. This snapshot not only captures an extraordinary moment but also reflects upon the spirit of community support prevalent during that era. Mr Johnson's act of donating his winnings to help visually impaired individuals demonstrates both compassion and selflessness. Through this single image, Thomas has managed to encapsulate several elements that defined life in Southport during this period - horses being an integral part of daily life in Lancashire; pubs serving as social hubs where stories were shared; charitable acts fostering unity within communities. Overall, this print serves as a timeless reminder of a unique event that unfolded decades ago while highlighting values such as camaraderie and philanthropy that remain relevant today.
