EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to March 1972, as we catch a glimpse of the new police patrol cars at Reeds Garage in Torquay. This print captures these iconic vehicles before their distinctive livery had been added, allowing us to appreciate their timeless design and raw power. Transport enthusiasts and nostalgia seekers alike will be drawn to this snapshot from bygone days. The image takes us on a journey through the bustling streets of Torquay, where these Ford Escort patrol cars stood proudly, ready to serve and protect the local community. The charm of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of classic automobiles but also in its ability to transport us back to a different era. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when police presence was symbolized by these sleek machines cruising through the town's winding roads. As we gaze upon this piece from Memory Lane Prints, our imagination runs wild with stories that unfolded within those car doors – high-speed chases, heroic rescues, or perhaps just friendly neighborhood patrols. Whatever tales lie behind these wheels, they are forever etched into the fabric of Torquay's history. Join us on this visual voyage through time and witness an era when law enforcement relied on sheer horsepower rather than modern technology. Let your mind wander as you immerse yourself in the spirit of 1970s England - an unforgettable chapter captured within this remarkable photograph.
