EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the year 1984, where Union Official Albert Burton and Freda Holmes stand in front of their former workplace - the Queen of clothing factories in Middlesbrough. Once known as the John Collier works, formerly Prices Tailors, this iconic building holds countless memories for these two individuals. As they gaze upon the remnants of what was once a bustling factory, now reduced to rubble and debris, one can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia mixed with melancholy. The image perfectly encapsulates the changing times and economic shifts that characterized the 1980s. Albert Burton's presence exudes pride and determination as he stands tall amidst the ruins. His role as a union official highlights his commitment to fighting for workers' rights during an era marked by job losses and industrial decline. Beside him stands Freda Holmes, her expression reflecting both sadness for what has been lost and gratitude for shared experiences within those walls. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how industries rise and fall over time; it is a testament to resilience in face of adversity. It captures not just bricks and mortar but also stories untold – tales of hard work, camaraderie among colleagues, and dreams pursued within those very walls. Memory Lane Prints allows us to glimpse into history through powerful images like this one – frozen moments that evoke emotions long after they were captured.
