EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this nostalgic print from 16th November 1983, we see Norris McWhirter, the renowned co-founder of the Guinness Book of Records, standing proudly on the right. Alongside him is his brother Ross, who played an instrumental role in creating this iconic publication that has fascinated readers for decades. The occasion was none other than the Birmingham Press Club's annual dinner, where distinguished guests gathered to celebrate literature and entertainment. In the heartwarming image, Mr. Willoughby Gullaschen, chairman of the esteemed Press Club, stands at the center with a welcoming smile. His presence signifies both recognition and appreciation for Norris McWhirter's remarkable achievements in bringing record-breaking feats to light through their pioneering book. Completing this memorable tableau is Terry Field, vice-chairman of the Press Club, seen on the left side of our photograph. Together with these influential figures from different realms – journalism and record-keeping – they symbolize a harmonious blend between media and knowledge dissemination. This snapshot not only captures a significant moment in history but also serves as a reminder of how books like Guinness World Records have shaped our understanding of human accomplishments during that vibrant era known as the 1980s.
