EDITORS COMMENTS
Barman Ken Hemming: The Face that Raised Funds for a Worthy Cause". In this print from 1989, we witness the remarkable story of Barman Ken Hemming, whose face became his ticket to making a difference. At the age of 57, working tirelessly at the Cask and Bottle pub in Union Street, Stratford-on-Avon, Ken stumbled upon an extraordinary talent - pulling funny faces. Not only did these comical expressions bring laughter to those around him but also served as a unique way to raise money for Guide Dogs for the Blind at Leamington. With each amusing grimace or hilarious contortion of his features, Ken managed to touch people's hearts and open their wallets in support of this noble cause. Donning glasses and various hats that added an extra layer of humor to his performances, this elderly gentleman proved that age is no barrier when it comes to spreading joy and making a positive impact on society. His gurning skills were not just entertainment; they were acts of kindness wrapped in laughter. This portrait captures the essence of Ken's philanthropic journey during the vibrant 1980s era. It serves as a reminder that sometimes our hidden talents can become unexpected blessings for others. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time by Mirrorpix's lens, let us celebrate Barman Ken Hemming - a man who discovered that even something as simple as pulling funny faces could change lives.
