EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming vintage photograph taken on 26th July 1985, we see Janice Coulthard, the friendly receptionist at an auction house, captivated by a collection of meticulously crafted model steam and traction engines. The engines were lovingly made by Ron Ibbertson, a former pit electrician who dedicated his life to the art of model making. Janice's admiration for these miniature marvels is evident in her expression as she carefully examines each tiny detail. Her fascination with the intricately designed trains and engines reflects not only her appreciation for craftsmanship but also highlights the joy that hobbies bring into our lives. The image captures a moment frozen in time - an era when leisure activities such as building models provided solace from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when individuals like Ron poured their passion into creating something beautiful with their own hands. Although we don't know Janice's exact age from this photo alone, it is clear that her enthusiasm knows no bounds regardless of age or gender. This image stands as a testament to the power of pastimes and how they can unite people across generations. Preserved through Memory Lane Prints' lens, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into both Janice's admiration for these remarkable models and Ron Ibbertson's dedication to his craft – two individuals brought together by their shared love for steam-powered wonders.
