EDITORS COMMENTS
Captivating and unconventional, this vintage print captures the audacious spirit of Mrs Sonia Williams, a Kingshurst newsagent's wife in Birmingham during the 1970s. With an adventurous desire to ride through the streets of Kingshurst in her natural form atop a majestic white horse, Mrs Williams embarked on what would become an unforgettable escapade. However, fate had its own plans as she engaged in conversation with local law enforcement. Adhering to their advice but not abandoning her bold intentions entirely, Mrs Williams compromised by donning underwear and a body stocking before mounting the borrowed horse from a nearby riding school. In an unexpected twist that added even more excitement to her journey, the spirited steed became startled along the way. Undeterred by this unforeseen turn of events, our daring protagonist resorted to an ingenious solution - continuing her tour of Kingswood perched atop a car roof rack! This remarkable snapshot encapsulates both courage and resourcefulness as Mrs Sonia Williams fearlessly navigates through crowds while channeling echoes of Lady Godiva's legendary ride. A mother of four who defied societal norms for one exhilarating moment in time. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints and captured on November 4th, 1972, this image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and unyielding determination amidst unforeseen circumstances.
