EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a brave policeman on traffic duty outside Moorgate underground station, battling through an unexpected snowstorm that took Londoners by surprise. The date was 2nd April 1968, when the city of London found itself blanketed in an out-of-season flurry. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a dedicated constable standing tall amidst the chaotic weather conditions. Clad in his uniform and donning a protective helmet, he fearlessly directs the flow of traffic with one hand while using the other to wave vehicles along their way. His unwavering commitment to maintaining law and order is evident even in the face of nature's fury. The image perfectly encapsulates the resilience and determination exhibited by those who serve on London's police force. Despite being caught off guard by Mother Nature's whimsical display, this valiant officer remains steadfastly focused on his duty. Photographer George Greenwell skillfully captures not only the snowy scene but also conveys a sense of unity among fellow Londoners as they navigate through these challenging conditions together. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how unpredictable weather can be and how it often brings out both strength and camaraderie within communities. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to an era where dedication to duty prevailed over adverse circumstances – truly showcasing what it means to be part of England's finest law enforcement agency.
