EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the bustling streets of London in April 1972. The image captures Corporal Brian Baker, a proud member of the Royal Marines hailing from Newcastle, as he takes a moment to have his boots polished by Stuart Redmand, a regular shoe polisher in Piccadilly. Dressed immaculately in his military uniform and beret, Corporal Baker stands tall with an air of discipline and determination. His appearance reflects not only the high standards expected of him as a Marine but also the pride he carries for his service to his country. Meanwhile, Stuart Redmand's occupation as a shoe polisher becomes more than just a job in this snapshot. It symbolizes the connection between civilians and those who serve their nation. As he meticulously shines Corporal Baker's boots, there is an unspoken understanding that transcends words – one that acknowledges sacrifice and respect. This photograph encapsulates both the camaraderie shared among individuals from different walks of life and the importance placed on appearances during this era. It serves as a reminder that even amidst busy city streets like Piccadilly, moments of human connection can be found – moments where soldiers' dedication is honored through small acts like polishing boots. Mirrorpix has beautifully captured this slice of history through their lens, allowing us to reflect upon not only our past but also appreciate those who have served selflessly throughout generations.
