EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from November 1969, we see Fred Mulley, the Minister of Transport at the time, taking charge as he steers a ferry across the iconic Mersey River. The bustling cityscape of Liverpool forms a picturesque backdrop to this historic moment. As Minister of Transport, Mulley's responsibility was to ensure smooth and efficient transportation systems for the nation. This snapshot captures him personally engaging with two passengers on his short trip - Maura O Owyer from Tipperary and Deirdre McCann from Dublin - both attractive nurses who happened to be aboard that day. The image exudes an air of significance as it showcases not only political power but also highlights the vital role that ferries played in connecting communities along river routes during this era. It serves as a reminder of how rivers like the Mersey served as lifelines for trade and travel. This photograph is part of Mirrorpix's collection titled "Memory Lane Prints" which aims to preserve historical moments captured through their lens. It offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when politics intertwined with everyday life, and public figures actively participated in shaping transportation policies.
