EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print from 1963, we witness a heart-stopping scene on the cobble streets of Merseyside. A group of fearless toddlers, filled with youthful exuberance and mischief, are seen running after National Coal Board Lorries, attempting to jump onto them. This daring activity may seem thrilling to these young boys, but it is undeniably dangerous. Set against the backdrop of a council estate, these small lads clad in shorts and brimming with curiosity chase after coal sacks being transported by the lorries. Their innocent faces reflect both excitement and determination as they navigate through the cobblestones strewn across their path. The image serves as a reminder of an era when children found adventure in simple everyday occurrences. However, it also highlights the risks involved in such activities - stones underfoot and moving vehicles pose significant dangers that could easily result in harm or injury. Taken on June 9th, 1963 by Mirrorpix for Memory Lane Prints, this photograph encapsulates a slice of history from Merseyside during the mid-20th century. It stands as a testament to childhood innocence mixed with recklessness while urging caution for future generations.
