EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a young boy immersed in his cowboy fantasy, transporting us back to Collyhurst, Manchester on the 14th of January 1968. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a moment that holds deep significance for generations past and present. The boy's grandfather reminisces about a time when tiny terraced houses stood proudly on this street, gazing at one another with familiarity. His father recalls the arrival of bulldozers that marked the end of an era. Yet amidst the changing landscape, this street remains a playground where remnants of the past give way to new possibilities. The rubble becomes a canvas for youthful imagination and adventure as our young hero leaps fearlessly into his role as sheriff or perhaps even The Lone Ranger himself. The joy radiating from his face is infectious; it speaks volumes about childhood innocence and happiness found in simple pleasures. With hat perched confidently atop his head and toy rifle held firmly in hand, he embodies bravery and curiosity synonymous with cowboys of yesteryears. As we gaze upon this scene captured by Dennis Hussey's lens, we are reminded not only of the fleeting nature of time but also how cherished memories can be preserved through art. This photograph serves as a testament to resilience and transformation - both within ourselves and within our surroundings - as we navigate life's ever-changing landscapes.
