EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a typical street in Kirkby, Liverpool during the 1960s. In this bustling scene, a group of boys can be seen engrossed in an intense game of football right on the street. These young lads are not just ordinary children; they proudly represent the St. Johns Ambulance Brigade with their distinctive uniforms. Their spirited cry echoes through the neighborhood: "There's nothing to do in Kirkby - if there was a boys club we'd join it". Meanwhile, amidst all the excitement, a few girls can be spotted playing hopscotch nearby. They add their own touch of liveliness to this vibrant snapshot of everyday life in Kirkby. The date etched at the bottom corner reminds us that this moment frozen in time occurred on March 18th, 1965. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when children found joy and entertainment by creating their own fun outdoors. Charlie Owens skillfully captured this candid street scene, preserving it for generations to come. This print is not just an image but also a testament to the timeless spirit and camaraderie shared among children growing up in Kirkby during that era.
