EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Working by Candle light and Hurricane Lamps, The Journal Newsroom" takes us back to a significant moment in history - the power cuts that plagued Newcastle on the 12th of February 1972. In this snapshot from the 1970s, we witness dedicated journalists working tirelessly at their desks amidst the darkness caused by electricity shortages. The image showcases an extraordinary scene where candlelight and hurricane lamps become essential sources of illumination for these determined individuals. As they navigate through this challenging situation, their commitment to delivering news remains unwavering. Each journalist is seen engrossed in their work, undeterred by the lack of conventional energy supply. The photograph not only captures a unique feature of fuel and power generation during that time but also serves as a testament to human resilience in adverse circumstances. It reminds us how people can adapt and find alternative means to continue with their daily tasks even when faced with unexpected challenges. Through this powerful visual narrative captured by NCJ Archive's lens, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the resourcefulness and dedication exhibited within The Journal Newsroom during those trying moments. This print stands as a remarkable reminder of our ability to overcome obstacles while pursuing our goals relentlessly.
