EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 7th July 1958 showcases the resilience and determination of a group of barrow boys at the Broughton Street site in Sunderland, UK. Despite facing an order from Sunderland Council to vacate the premises, these hardworking individuals refused to let adversity dampen their spirits. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a medium-sized group of people engaged in various occupations, all united by their shared goal of selling fresh fruits. The mixed age range adds depth to the image, with young boys eagerly assisting older men as they navigate through bustling streets. Their weathered faces tell stories of long hours spent under the sun, braving rain or shine to make ends meet. The scene is filled with energy as these street traders carry on with their small businesses amidst uncertainty. Laden with crates overflowing with colorful produce, their barrows become mobile market stalls that bring life and vibrancy to this corner of Sunderland's social history. Captured by NCJ - Kemsley for Memory Lane Prints, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the indomitable spirit that defines small business owners throughout generations. It immortalizes not just a moment frozen in time but also pays homage to those who have tirelessly worked towards sustaining themselves and serving their communities against all odds.
