EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant 1970s, capturing a fleet of Volkswagen vans and cars at Manston, Kent. The scene is filled with anticipation as these vehicles eagerly await distribution to dealers across Britain. It was September 30th, 1973 when this snapshot in time was frozen by photographer Peter Powell. The image showcases the iconic Volkswagen brand's popularity during this era, highlighting their presence on British roads. With its unmistakable design and reliable performance, the VW van became synonymous with freedom and adventure for many. These vehicles were not just modes of transport; they represented a lifestyle choice that embraced exploration and individuality. Manston, located in picturesque Kent, serves as an ideal backdrop for this photograph. The serene surroundings juxtapose against the bustling activity of vehicle distribution taking place within its borders. This historic moment captures both the beauty of nature and the progress made in transportation technology during that period. Peter Powell's keen eye has immortalized this significant moment in automotive history through his lens. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to an era where these Volkswagen vans and cars symbolized more than just metal on wheels - they embodied a sense of freedom, style, and possibility that still resonates today.
