EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant era of the 1970s. The image showcases PC Roger Cox, a dedicated police officer who decided to embrace his inner rebel by donning the iconic attire of a teddy boy. On that memorable day, January 17th, 1979, PC Cox confidently strutted in his brocade waistcoat and drainpipe trousers while sporting a drape jacket with utmost style. The teddy boys were at the forefront of youth culture during this time, known for their love of rock 'n' roll music and distinctive fashion choices. With crepe sole shoes and a slim jim tie completing his ensemble, PC Cox effortlessly embodied the rebellious spirit that defined an entire generation. Beyond its entertainment value or fashionable appeal, this photograph also sheds light on an interesting aspect of policing in the past. As a plain clothes detective within law enforcement, PC Cox's decision to dress as a teddy boy was perhaps an unconventional approach to blending in with youth subcultures he aimed to understand better. This remarkable snapshot serves as both a visual testament to individuality and an intriguing glimpse into our shared history. It reminds us how fashion can transcend boundaries and allows us to appreciate those who dare to challenge societal norms while serving their communities faithfully.
