EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the nostalgic era of the 1950s. Aston Villa centre-forward Gerry Hitchens is captured in a serene moment, surrounded by the beauty of his home garden. Engrossed in conversation with his wife Meriol, their bond and love for each other radiate through the image. As one of football's prominent figures during that time, Hitchens' presence on the field was formidable. However, this snapshot allows us to witness a different side of him - a devoted husband and family man who finds solace amidst nature's embrace. The couple's tranquil domestic life is beautifully juxtaposed against Hitchens' intense sporting career. It serves as a reminder that even those who excel in their professions need moments of relaxation and rejuvenation within the comfort of their own homes. Gardening becomes an avenue for both physical and mental respite for Hitchens. The lush greenery surrounding them symbolizes growth, harmony, and perhaps even parallels his success on the football pitch. This photograph encapsulates not only an iconic footballer but also captures a cherished moment between two individuals deeply connected by love and shared dreams. It invites us to reflect upon our own lives - reminding us that amidst all achievements and triumphs lies the importance of nurturing relationships and finding joy in simple pleasures like tending to our gardens or engaging in heartfelt conversations with loved ones. Mirrorpix has once again immortalized history through this remarkable print – allowing us to relish
