EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by John Randle, we witness the unique bond between snake lover Tony Griffiths and his pet python, Monty. As they settle down to watch TV together in their cozy living room in Ladywood on a chilly February evening in 1990, it is evident that Tony's passion for reptiles knows no bounds. However, while Tony finds solace and companionship with Monty during their television time, his wife Marilyn prefers to keep her distance. With an air of caution surrounding her, she chooses to move as far away as possible from the mesmerizing creature coiled around her husband's arm. This snapshot not only showcases the extraordinary relationship between man and serpent but also invites us into a world where unconventional pets become part of our everyday lives. It serves as a reminder that love and connection can transcend traditional boundaries. As we delve into this nostalgic image from the 20th century, we are reminded of the power of human curiosity and our ability to find joy in unexpected places. The presence of Monty adds an element of intrigue and mystery to this ordinary living room scene – a testament to the wonders that lie within our own homes. John Randle's photograph immortalizes a moment frozen in time; one that encapsulates both fascination and apprehension towards these enigmatic creatures.
